• Five ITMO University Scientists Awarded SRIE Scholarship

  … laser freezing of dielectric nanocrystals doped with ytterbium ions in the field of a radiofrequency trap. Ytterbium ions make nanocrystals to absorb photons from the laser. As a reaction to each absorption act, a recoil impulse is communicated to the nanocrystal, slowing down its movement. A dielectric nanocrystal with ytterbium ions has an uncompensated surface-bo…
