Quantum Locking Will Blow Your Mind-How Does it Work?
Переглядів 12,231,711
День томуIn this video I use a type II superconductor to perform a quantum locking demonstration using YCBO (Yttrium barium copper oxide). I then explain in depth how superconductors and quantum locking (Flux pinning) works.

I'm guessing the superconductor was re-cooled a few times during this demonstration. That's the downside to superconductors - they need to be kept cold or the superconductivity goes away. IF they could come up with a room temperature superconductor made of inexpensive and commonly found materials, all our lives would become different. Power sources, electronics, communication, transportation and more would all change drastically.

I caught this. And yes, it is all relative. While watching, I was vaguely thinking about how this worked at the much larger scale of the quantum locking demonstrated in the video. That wasn't just a few nanometers. The effect on the whole object was happening at several centimeters, to be sure. I didn't really quite grasp how the electron couplets related to the effect at such distance. Maybe I just didn't get where each electron of the couplet "lived". Surely one is not in the magnet and the other in the superconductor. There is certainly more to be "grokked" here...

This man is not burdened with baby-sitting (and not failing) uninterested students, keeping up with an externally imposed curriculum that gets new topics added every year without eliminating any old topics, or being evaluated by student performance on multiple choice tests incapable of testing if the students actually understand anything they are being required to parrot.

"It has to come in discrete packets" is a good definition of "quantum." It is basically how Einstein described it in 1905 in his paper on the photoelectric effect, one of the first papers ever to describe a quantum mechanical system. That's what won him the Nobel Prize, not relativity.

Quantum is similar in meaning to quantity, as in order for something to be quantifiable it has to be in separate bits.

That's kinda bad. General relativity is was a lot more remarkable and revolutionary than the description of photoelectric effect. Not saying photoelectric effect is bad but Einstein is remembered because of relativity in the general public and scientific community. If anyone knows why he wasn't given the Nobel prize for relativity I'd like to know.

@@manan-543 He was kinda pissed about it. Their practice at the time was to award the prize for applied, not theoretical physics. They eventually decided the Photoelectric effect was practical enough, many years after everyone else thought he should have won. He decided not to go to Stockholm and accepted the award at a themepark in Gothenberg instead. A little petty, but kind of funny.

A glove + liquid nitrogen... is not a good idea. A cold puck + glove...is a good idea. Here's a guy dipping his hand into liquid nitrogen. ukposts.info/have/v-deo/g4KGgmitsYyhwmw.html Small amounts of Liquid nitrogen will roll off your skin harmlessly due to the Leidenfrost effect. But it will stick to clothing more easily (e.g. a glove), freeze it and then the clothing freezes your skin. It's probably safest to be completely naked when dealing with liquid nitrogen😅 (to a point).

Hi, I have a few questions (since I can't replicate the experiment): How much force do you need to move it around?

I first saw this effect demonstrated at Chalmers Technical in Gothenburg when I was 18, back in 2004. I was researching magnetic levitation for a school project. They also demonstrated a "magnetic cannon" using magnets and iron ball bearings, but the quantum-locked superconductor definitely stole the show. The year after, they demonstrated the world's first industrial water jet cutter, which was developed at that lab, by cutting an anvil in half. I enjoyed science before, but after that, I was truly hooked.
