The crystalline solid BaTiS 3 (barium titanium sulfide) is terrible at conducting heat, and it turns out that a wayward titanium atom that exists in two places at the same time is to blame. The ...

Tiny step edges, big step for surface science Date: April 9, 2014 Source: Vienna University of Technology, TU Vienna Summary: New experiments can explain the behavior of electrons at tiny step ...

Like a magnet on a refrigerator, each titanium atom has a north and south magnetic pole. The two magnetic orientations define the “0” or “1” of a qubit.

'Metal-Decorated' Nanotubes Hold Promise For Fuel Cells Date: June 10, 2005 Source: National Institute Of Standards And Technology Summary: New quantum calculations and computer models show that ...

With a titanium chassis, the Atom could feasibly be made to weigh less than 500 kg (1102 lbs), but Ariel says that a more realistic target is just over 500. This would make it an even madder ...

The team found that a free oxygen atom at room temperature (about 20 C or 68 F) is virtually immobile on a titanium oxide surface.
