Kavli Prize, $1 million award in nanoscience:

Kavli Foundation announced in 2005 that it was establishing the KAVLI PRIZES, three $1 million awards to be given in a biennial ceremony in Oslo to scientists in astrophysics, neuroscience and NANOSCIENCE.

Nano-scale superconducting systems and nano-devices:

Superconductivity is a state of metal in which the electrical current flows without any detectable dissipation. It is a fascinating phenomenon that was used to measure magnetic fields of a living brain as well as to test the limits of the Quantum Mechanics.
