Scientists are making significant progress in quantum physics, developing new ways to study quantum phenomena that could lead ...

Most electronic devices are powered by lithium-ion batteries, which have a limited density, meaning they can only store a ...

Programmable photonics promises faster, more energy-efficient computing than electronics by transmitting signals using light.

A single organic device reconfigures as transistor, rectifier and logic gate, offering compact circuits with higher ...

Programmable photonics devices, which use light to perform complex computations, are emerging as a key area in integrated photonics research. Unlike ...

Ahead of a full production model arriving next year, Porsche invited us to its facility in Leipzig, Germany, to get ...

Superconductors are special materials that allow electricity to flow without any resistance, much like a frictionless highway ...

The underlying thesis of increasing electronics efficiency is to harness electron spin to control the flow of electricity. It’s that spin that causes electrons to behave like magnets. The combination ...

A research team in Kiel has demonstrated a previously unknown effect in graphene—a single layer of carbon atoms whose ...

A team of researchers from Boston College has created a new metallic specimen where the motion of electrons flows in the same way water flows in a pipe—fundamentally changing from particle-like to ...

Researchers explain why weak magnetic fields can instantly control electrical flow direction in these quantum metals.

Quantum metals are metals where quantum effects—behaviors that normally only matter at atomic scales—become powerful enough ...
