Ion bombardment of metal surfaces is an important, but poorly understood, nanomanufacturing technique. New research using sophisticated supercomputer simulations has shown what goes on in trillionths of a second. The advance could lead to better ways to predict the phenomenon and more uses of the technique to make new nanoscale products.

Multiphysics,
COMSOL’s software environment for modeling and simulating any
physics-based system, recently received a major update. New capabilities
in version 4.3 include three new discipline-specific add-on modules,
fast and powerful meshing, a new "Double Dogleg" solver for mechanical
contact and highly nonlinear simulations, and numerous user-inspired
enhancements.

After
studies involving advanced simulations of nanoscale magnetic and
materials phenomena, a team of scientists in Germany have proposed
making use of magnetic moments in chains of iron atoms to allow
information to be transported on the nanoscale in a fast and
energy-efficient manner. The scheme, demonstrated in experiments, would
work over a wide temperature range, remaining largely unaffected by
external magnetic fields.

Many
simulations and experiments already generate petabytes of data—a single
petabyte is 2,000 times more data than you can fit on a typical
laptop—and they will soon be generating exabytes. The Department of
Energy’s newly established Scalable Data Management, Analysis, and
Visualization (SDAV) Institute is intended to help scientists deal with
the deluge of data.
