Levitating diamonds defy the laws of physics, or do they?


"A groundbreaking experiment at Purdue University showcases levitating diamonds spinning at 1.2 billion RPM, unlocking new insights into quantum physics and gravity." (https://www.sustainability-times.com/in-depth/levitating-diamonds-reach-impossible-speed-spinning-at-1-2-billion-rpm-theyre-cracking-open-the-secrets-of-quantum-gravity/)

"Within the confines of a vacuum chamber, researchers have managed to levitate nanodiamonds, each just 750 nanometers wide, using an ingeniously designed ion trap. These diamonds are not ordinary; they are crafted through high-pressure, high-temperature processes and then modified with high-energy electrons to create nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers. These NV centers are the heart of the experiment, housing electron spins that act like tiny compasses to detect magnetic fields." ( https://www.sustainability-times.com/in-depth/levitating-diamonds-reach-impossible-speed-spinning-at-1-2-billion-rpm-theyre-cracking-open-the-secrets-of-quantum-gravity/)

Those diamonds can make it possible to create new sensor technology. 

Levitating in the vacuum chamber is a new thing. 

Those diamonds can make it possible to create new sensor technology. It is possible to put the diamond to levitate in the air benefiting pressure waves that lasers can create in them. If the diamond spins in the gas like air that thing can cause very strong friction. The friction starts to heat the air. And that makes those things dangerous. 

Diamonds can levitate if the system conducts light to them. This thing seems to defy the laws of physics. But there is nothing mystic in that phenomenon. The light that hits diamonds causes the acoustic waves around it. 

The phonon forms acoustic waves that cause levitation. When light is conducted on the diamond. It pushes electron shells in one direction.

That makes the acoustic wave travel in the diamond. Those acoustic waves, or pressure waves can push diamonds upwards. The acoustic wave can lock the diamond into the levitating position over the layer. 

The thing that makes the phonon into those diamonds is that they are monoatomic structures. There are used laboratory, or industrial diamonds in those experiments. In phonon, tests are used industrial diamonds are made of extremely purified carbon.

The vacuum levitation needs NV centers. In the phonons, there are no other than carbon atoms in that nanostructure. That makes those purified diamonds an ability. That there are no pockets where that energy can go. That makes acoustic waves travel through diamonds without changing. 

If we think that the small pyramid, or cone-shaped diamonds. Sends an acoustic wave through its top that wave can push air molecules away from its route. That makes the low pressure above the diamond. That low-pressure channel can pull the diamond up from the layer. 

The thing. What makes a diamond move is the low-pressure channel ahead of it. The shape of the nano- or miniature diamonds determines does the low-pressure channel or pressure wave behind the diamond is the thing that moves it. 

That can make those diamonds levitate. When we think about phonons. It is possible to make a similar effect in the silicone structures. The purified silicon can levitate in a similar way as (at least) miniature diamonds. 

Those levitating phonon structures are interesting because they can make miniature flying robots possible. When something pushes those pressure, or acoustic waves that surround the nanodiamonds that makes them move forward. Otherwise, the system can make another phonon in the diamond or purified silicone crystal. That crystal can have four or more cone-shaped overhangs. 

So when the light impacts them in different directions. That makes the diamond fly in that direction. Where the operator wants. This kind of levitating crystals can make it possible to create nano-weapons like controlled sandstorms where the nano-particles hit the targeted army with a speed that is many times faster than the speed of sound.

New diamond qubits are game-changing.



"The diamond quantum chip used in this research. Credit: QuTech" (ScitechDaily, Quantum Computing Breakthrough Achieved With Diamond Qubits)


"Scientists at QuTech have achieved a major milestone in quantum computing by creating highly precise quantum gates on a diamond chip, hitting error rates as low as 0.001%." (ScitechDaily, Quantum Computing Breakthrough Achieved With Diamond Qubits)

"By using ultra-pure diamonds and advanced gate designs, the team overcame key challenges that have limited previous approaches. These precise gates passed rigorous testing with long sequences of operations, marking a significant step toward building scalable quantum computers." (ScitechDaily, Quantum Computing Breakthrough Achieved With Diamond Qubits)

The problem with quantum computers is the gate that controls the information flow. The qubit can involve at the same time multiple zeros and ones. When the quantum computer loads information to qubits we can think this thing is similar to the cases where the system spray paints that information to the qubit. But in that case, the system makes the 3D structure like a globe. There the mountains and hills are the zeros and ones. 

Diamond qubits make quantum computers more effective. The prime question in those systems is how to stabilize that qubit. The qubit makes quantum entanglement between two photons. And then, it starts to make data transmission between those photons. Another promising thing to make qubits is neutrons. Neutrons are bipolar particles with N/S polarity. And that makes those particles capable of operating as qubits. 

The system transmits information into the neutron's quantum field. That energy pike in the spin axle should transmit it forward. 

The problem is that the neutron is not slight enough. The main problem is to control the photon. And transmit data in it. It's possible to use diamonds. Or, nanodiamonds trap photons and then transmit information between those diamonds. In some other cases, the nanodiamonds can also use phonons to transmit information in the quantum computer. 

The nanodiamonds and phonons are tools. That can make so-called acoustic qubits possible. The acoustic qubits are like quantum organs. In that system, all nanodiamond pairs have different resonance frequencies. So each of those pairs has different impurities and different colors. 

The acoustic or phononic qubits can mimic human brains. The idea is that those nano-size diamonds act like neurons.  

One of the reasons. Why human brains are so effective is that those neurons are close to each other. 

In the same way. In acoustic quantum computers, those diamonds are close to each other. And they can be closed in the nanotubes. That protects the acoustic transmission. The system is like the radio-wave-based systems. There each radio frequency is one layer or state of the qubit. Those diamonds can also send information in the form of EM radiation. 

Those diamonds are in opposite graphene networks. Nanodiamonds are precisely opposite to each other. A laser beam forms the phonon into those diamonds. And then. That phonon transmits data between those layers and nanodiamonds. This is one vision of acoustic qubits. 

The acoustic qubit means. That there the atoms or some atomic or subatomic particles like protons and neutrons that move. 

There is the possibility. The acoustic qubit sends the proton or some other particle to the quantum channel. That particle can also carry data itself. In that model, the acoustic system just kicks the qubit forward.

What happens to mass and energy near the speed of light?



The answer to that question is interesting. Mass is energy. And energy is mass. When the energy level rises, the mass of the object also rises. Or the object pulls more energy in it. When a higher-energy particle touches a lower-energy particle or object. It delivers that energy. When a particle moves through space. 

If you make a bullet with a 1D atom lattice in the middle of it. That atom lattice forms a phonon. The effect is where all atoms in a lattice deliver their energy synchronously as acoustic waves. That increases its power because it delivers impact energy faster. 

It transfers energy inside it. Then it delivers that energy to the object where it hits. So we can think case where the pure silicone crystal hits an object. 

The bullet stores energy in it. And we can think that it moves its atom's electrons backward. Then the object hits the target. Those electrons travel ahead synchronously. In that process, those electrons deliver their energy. That thing is possible only in 1D atomic lattices. So the bullet must made using the 2D silicone structures to make that thing like this possible. 

The speed of light is the cosmic speed limit. That speed is one of the great paradoxes in the universe. The speed of light is a cosmic constant. But it's not the same everywhere. The speed of light in a medium is lower than the speed of light in a vacuum. 

Cosmic nebulas and other things also decrease the speed of light. So, that's why we should say that a photon's speed is always the top, but another photon can travel faster than another. When a photon arrives at the medium. 


"Animation showing 6 normal modes of a one-dimensional lattice: a linear chain of particles. The shortest wavelength is at top, with progressively longer wavelengths below. In the lowest lines the motion of the waves to the right can be seen." (Wikipedia, Phonon)

************************************************'


The hypothetical graviton can be photon-hole. Or a photonic version of an electron hole. When a photon goes into the high energy field it gets more energy than it delivers. That can cause a situation. In which a photon jumps out from the 3D universe. In that case, the photon leaves a hole behind it. So the reaction is similar to when an electron jumps out from its orbital. 


************************************************'

It must deliver its energy to the nebula. But then we must realize that photons and all moving particles carry kinetic energy. That energy forms when quantum fields go in the particle that travels in quantum fields. So when the particle's speed increases. It just transports quantum fields inside it. 

The particle must create an energy field whose energy level is higher than the energy level in the particle. 

Because energy always travels to the lower energy field. The energy is field interaction. Which means energy is wave movement between two fields. 

The fields must be similar. And we can see energy. Only when it moves. The electromagnetic field cannot fill the gravity field for example. 

A gravity field can transform an electromagnetic wave's trajectory. But, it cannot merge with the EM field. 

The EM field can merge with other EM fields. That means energy from higher energy fields travels to lower energy fields. The speed of energy transfer depends on the difference between fields' energy levels. 

But then what happens near the speed of light? The energy jumps out from the particle and denies its acceleration. But what happens? When a particle travels in the Universe it prowls through quantum fields. Those fields form the shockwave ahead of the particle. The shockwave has many layers. The inner shockwave to the particle has a lower energy level than the field ahead of that shockwave. The energy of the higher energy part turns higher than the environment. 

And that pushes energy out of the shockwave. That causes energy loss. So, finally, energy starts to travel from the particle to the shockwave. And that denies the acceleration. The problem is that near the speed of light energy goes to a shockwave. And it cannot reach the particle. 

So the blue light flashes that things like neutrino detectors detect are the part of the shockwave that travels to the lower energy fields. When the neutrino impacts water in the sensor or when it arrives in the atmosphere. Quantum fields around atoms pull that shockwave to them very fast. 

The photon is the only known particle that can reach the speed of light in the so-called straight universe. Photon is like a donut. And that explains. The thing for why it can always travel with the speed of light. The shape makes it possible that when a photon travels in a quantum field the field travels in its internal structure. 

Then it travels through the photon's ring-shaped structure. That thing means that the photon gets as much energy as it delivers. This is one of the things that causes interesting models. If there is some energy source that brings more energy in the photon than it delivers it can explain the hypothetical graviton. 

The case where a photon simply jumps out from the Universe. When its energy level turns too high causes a similar pothole with an electron when it jumps out from its orbital. In some models, the graviton is the photon hole or photonic version of the electron hole.
