Breakthrough realized for retaining quantum information in a single-electron quantum bit. Coherence stands as a pillar of effective communication, whether it is in writing, speaking or information processing. This principle…
Columbia chemists discover ballistic flow in a quantum material. The finding could help overcome shortcomings in semiconductors. Semiconductors—most notably, silicon—underpin the computers, cellphones, and other electronic devices that power our…
The low-cost FibeRobo, which is compatible with existing textile manufacturing techniques, could be used in adaptive performance wear or compression garments. Instead of needing a coat for each season, imagine…
Researchers at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory have improved flaw detection to increase confidence in metal parts that are 3D-printed using laser powder bed fusion. This type…
Aalto University researchers will probe the secrets of dark matter using a quantum detector of unprecedented sensitivity. In the pitch dark of the cosmos lurks an invisible kind of matter….
Newly discovered mechanism contributes to a better understanding of molecular foundations of fertility. Special proteins – known as membrane transporters – are of key importance for the mobility of sperm…
