With a clever design, researchers have solved eddy-current damping in macroscopic levitating systems, paving the way for a wide range of sensing technologies. Levitation has long been pursued by stage ...

A team of researchers from ETH Zurich has reached an impressive milestone in quantum physics by levitating a cluster of three nano-glass spheres, composed of 300 million atoms. The spheres, each ten ...

With the help of an optical device and laser beams, researchers at ETH Zurich have succeeded in keeping such objects almost completely motionless in levitation. This is significant when it comes to ...
