The researchers have found a new way to make and observe the elusive electron crystals.

The researchers have found a new way to make and observe the elusive electron crystals. The electron crystals are first time made in 1979 when researchers used helium and that thing has been observed many times. But the helium-based structure is unstable.  It requires a low temperature and it can break very easily.  

But what if the electron trap can be created by using fullerene what makes it more stable. Stabilizing the electron crystal would make it a fascinating tool for many things. And that thing can be revolutionizing if the electron crystals can stabilize and if they are working at room temperature. 

 The electron crystal or Wigner Crystal (or Widger Cluster) (2)can use in extremely high accurate radars and new ultra-accurate nanotechnical radio telescopes for making the antenna, what resolution capacity is higher than any antenna before. The Wigner crystal can use in data storage, but there might also another use in that system

The Wigner Crystal is the 2D or 3D lattice structure, which can trap electrons. This thing can be extremely interesting when we are willing to create spin waves based transmitting- receive systems for MRI-technology. The electrons would put to spin in the lattice, where they can transmit extremely thin magnetic rays. 

That means that the Wigner crystal can be used to create extremely sharp MRI-images even from single cells in the human body if that system would install in the nanomachines. But the Wigner crystal can make something more. It can be used in extremely small radio transmitters, which can create the dream of the quantum computer closer than ever before. 

The electrons that are anchored in the lattice can use as the nano-size qubits. The data would be driven to those electrons, what is transmitting them to the receiver, what can also be the Wigner Crystal. The problem is that the spin waves must not be disturbed from the outside magnetic fields. So the researchers must protect the quantum computer against the outer radiation. 

The Wigner crystal can use in ultra-accurate radio antennas, but that structure can also store positrons. 

The fact is that the Wigner crystal-based antennas can also use to create extremely sharp radio telescopes. If the electrons or some other atoms are hovering above the lattice, that thing can create the nanotechnical compound eye for the radio transmitters and receivers. That thing can give the ultimate high resolutive accuracy for the radars and radio telescopes. 

One of the most interesting things is that Wigner crystal can also use to store positrons, which is making it a suitable structure for antimatter storage. The antielectrons can store in the Wigner crystal as well as normal electrons, and that is given the new visions in the space research and military solutions, which makes the horrifying antimatter ammunition or Tellers bomb true.

Antimatter motor

Antimatter motor Antimatter would be an effective fuel for interstellar spacecraft Antimatter would be the most effective power source in the world. It will be the most suitable motor for interstellar spacecraft, but the problem is that thing is very reactive. And actually one of the biggest problems with this kind of motor is that the gram of antimatter would turn the entire planet to the molecular nebula. So this kind of motor can produce only outside of our solar system. Producing antimatter would need large particle accelerators, and that kind of systems might look like giant donuts, what is floating on the space. There are two ways to create the antimatter motor, one is to store the anti-ions in the magnetic bottle, where the pushing magnetic field will keep those ions away from the wall of the bottle, and then the antimatter would conduct to the water or some other particle. The huge explosion or annihilation reaction would send the rocket to a very high speed. The antimatt...

Thoughts about strong leadership

Thoughts about strong leadership Everybody knows, how the dictators would rise in the power of the nation, and the thing what makes people supporting those persons is that they offer strong leadership as the way to make nation proud. And also they have always the same parroting, the foreigners and other nations have a too strong influence in the country. But what makes those persons like some Robert Mugabe or Kim Jong Un to think that they are only possible leaders, and why people would need them? Why there is nobody else allowed to try to come to the head of the state, or even try to challenge those leaders? If they are so popular as they want people to think or believe, why they don't tolerate any kind of opposition if they are done so good and big actions for their people, that they are celebrated in every home in their country. The thing that would return the morale and spine for the nation is the strong leader, who would put the state back in order and row. The thing is ...

Next-generation nanotechnology can be independent-operating molecule-sized robots.

 Next-generation nanotechnology can be independent-operating molecule-sized robots. "A DNAzyme (red) uses its binding arms to dock at a specific location on an RNA strand (yellow) and then cleaves it at its core. High-resolution, real-time NMR, Electron Paramagnetic Resonance, and Fluorescence Spectroscopy." "As well as Molecular Dynamics Simulations are used to identify the structure. And catalytic mechanisms of the DNAzyme. Credit: HHU/Manuel Etzkorn" (https://scitechdaily.com/dnazymes-how-active-dna-biocatalysts-that-destroy-unwanted-rna-molecules-work/) The active DNA catalysts are the gate to DNA-controlled, independently-operating, molecular-size nanomachines.  The DNAzymes or active DNA biocatalysts are next-generation tools for destroying unwanted RNA. The DNA molecule is one of the tools. That can use for controlling molecular-size machines. DNA is like a chemical computer program. And if the researchers can make synthetic DNA that can make exactly what the...
