Optical lattices thus implement Richard Feynman's pioneering idea of 'quantum simulation' — using one quantum system to investigate another. Feynman introduced the concept because a correct ...

Scientists have recently shown that a multitude of high-dimensional synthetic lattices naturally emerge ... way of describing the evolution of a system proceeds via the specification of functions ...

Germanium has the diamond cubic crystal structure shown, an fcc lattice with a basis of two germanium atoms, one at (0,0,0) and the other at (1/4, 1/4, 1/4) in units of the cube edge. It can also be ...
