- High-Pressure Experiments Reveal Graphene’s 3D Nature 06/02/2020 The Queen Mary Research Shows That Graphene is 3D As Well As 2D
- The Legacy Of César Lattes 01/02/2020 Brazilian physicist César Lattes, considered a national hero for his discoveries, paved the way for trailblazing research projects in particle astrophysics across Latin America and beyond.
- Material Lattice Morphs Into Doubly Curved Shapes 24/01/2020 Researchers have succeeded in 4D-printing material lattices that can shape-morph into complex and doubly curved structures in response to changes in temperature.
- Surfactant Monolayers Help Make Polymer Crystals 21/01/2020 A new technique dubbed surfactant-monolayer-assisted interfacial synthesis (SMAIS) can produce few-layer 2D polymer crystals on the surface of water.
- How to Get a Particle Detector on a Plane 13/01/2020 A small team at the US Department of Energy has been working to assemble, test and transport detector pieces for an upgrade of the ALICE detector array at the CERN lab in Europe.
- Time Reversal Symmetry Breaks in Ferromagnetic Weyl Semimetals 08/01/2020 A group of Princeton University observed novel topological Weyl fermion “line” and “drumhead” surface states in a room temperature magnet – made of cobalt, manganese, and gallium – for the first time.
- Giant Negative Thermal Expansion Seen In Nanomagnet 03/01/2020 A High-Resolution TEM Image Of The Nanoparticles Studied in This Work
- Physicists Break Distance Record For Electron Spin-State Transmission in Spin qubits 12/12/2019 For quantum computers to be feasible, quantum error correction is necessary to protect the information in qubit arrays even if individual qubits become corrupted. Its implementation requires that multiple qubits can interact with one another.
- Exciton Condensation Breaks New Temperature Record 08/10/2019 New Cornell-led research is pointing the way toward an elusive goal of physicists—high-temperature superfluidity—by exploring excitons in atomically thin semiconductors.
- Single-Nanowires Make Powerful Spectrometers 04/10/2019 Simplest possible spectrometer.
- Hydrogen Storage Gets Real 02/09/2019 As production costs fall and demand is poised to rocket, James Mitchell Crow finds the hydrogen economy is finally ready for take-off – as long as we can find ways to store it.
