Controlling single-particle wave functions in single semiconductor quantum dots is in demand to implement solid-state quantum information processing and spintronics. Normally, particle wave functions ...

Negative refraction of elastic waves has been studied and experimentally demonstrated in three- and two-dimensional phononic crystals, but Bragg scattering is impractical for low-frequency wave ...

Can you imagine sound traveling in the same way as light does? A research team at City University of Hong Kong (CityU) has discovered a new type of sound wave: The airborne sound wave vibrates ...

This project uses a servo motor and small slinky to demonstrate what a longitudinal wave looks like. Additionally it shows the crests and troughs of that longitudinal wave. It can also be utilized to ...

Ultrasound-based irradiation of rock formations has attracted considerable attention as a technique for enhancing heavy-oil ...

In this video, the Surfing GB team help demonstrate the different types of waves. Waves may be transverse or longitudinal. Electromagnetic waves are transverse waves with a wide range of properties ...
