Zubairy, Colleagues Make Advances in Dark Physics
EDUCATION CITY, DOHA, Qatar —
Research being conducted by Dr. M. Suhail Zubairy, a professor of physics at Texas A&M University who currently is teaching at the university’s branch campus in Qatar, has been featured by the American Physical Society.
Zubairy and colleagues at the Max Planck Institute for Nuclear Physics in Heidelberg, Germany, are exploring ways to make computer chip components smaller than the wavelength of the lasers used in the manufacturing process. Their work is reported in the February 19 issue of Physical Review Letters as well as the February 13 online publication Focus.
“Zubairy’s team showed that one can use the lasers to create sub-wavelength-sized regions on the surface where the molecules are all in a special state,” reported science writer Michael Schirber.
