Cornell researchers have developed a two-phase liquid crystal system that can rapidly change—and hold—its shape, transforming ...

Crystals are known far and wide for their beauty and elegance. But even though they may appear perfect on the outside, their ...

Researchers at the University of Illinois have pulled off a laser first: they built a new kind of eye-safe laser that works ...

A new silicon material switches from insulator to metal in picoseconds. This breakthrough could speed up future computers.

Engineers have developed the first room-temperature, eye-safe, photopumped PCSEL by embedding silicon dioxide into photonic ...

Researchers show that twisting stacked atomic layers can unlock new quantum properties, offering a fresh strategy to engineer ...

An international team, led by Donostia International Physics Center (DIPC), has discovered a new way to design novel quantum ...

Using an advanced Monte Carlo method, Caltech researchers found a way to tame the infinite complexity of Feynman diagrams and ...

Until recently, most studies on subgap states focused on amorphous IGZO, as sufficiently large single-crystal IGZO (sc-IGZO) ...

A clever method from Caltech researchers now makes it possible to unravel complex electron-lattice interactions, potentially transforming how we understand and design quantum and electronic materials.
