When the electronic cloud covers the silicon valley
By measuring the electronic corrugation of the silicon surface sample, physicists from the Institut des Sciences Moléculaires d’Orsay –ISMO (CNRS/ Univ. Paris Sud) and from the department of chemistry at Jackson State University (Jackson USA) have demonstrated for the first time that a semiconductor can show electronic corrugation being much lower than the corrugation of the atoms.

A sharp eye for molecular fingerprints
A team of scientists around Dr. Nathalie Picqué and Prof. Theodor W. Hänsch at the Laser Spectroscopy Division of the Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics (Garching), in a collaboration with the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität Munich and the Institut des Sciences Moléculaires d’Orsay (France) now reports on a new method of real-time identification and quantification of molecular species
These results have been published in Nature Communications

Trapping a fast atom wave on a cristalline surface
Researchers at ISMO have succeeded in trapping fast He atom waves in the shallow well of the atom-surface interaction potential. They have shown that, contrary to general belief, a real surface should be treated as a quantum object even at room temperature.
Their results have been published in Physical Review Letters
