Moontanman Posted January 8, 2009 Report Posted January 8, 2009 Levitation At Microscopic Scale Could Lead To Nanomechanical Devices Based On Quantum LevitationScienceDaily (Jan. 7, 2009) — Magicians have long created the illusion of levitating objects in the air. Now researchers have actually levitated an object, suspending it without the need for external support. Working at the molecular level, the researchers relied on the tendency of certain combinations of molecules to repel each other at close contact, effectively suspending one surface above another by a microscopic distance.
