Researchers find a surprise just beneath the surface in carbon dioxide experiment

When a carbon dioxide experiment didn't match with what theorists predicted, researchers went back to the drawing board and discovered something new.

Nanophotonic system allows optical 'deep learning'

Neural networks could be implemented more quickly using new photonic technology.

Nanoelectronic barcoding on lab on a chip could monitor health, germs and pollutants

Engineers have invented biosensor technology - known as a lab on a chip - that could be used in hand-held or wearable devices to monitor your health and exposure to dangerous bacteria, viruses and pollutants.

Chemists perform surgery on nanoparticles

The site-specific method could allow chemists to manipulate nanoparticles' properties.

Nothing boring about the thinnest boron ever

Researchers made a sheet of boron only one atom thick with the potential to change solar panels, computers, and more.

Quantum theory for manipulating nanomagnets

Researchers have created a theory that predicts the properties of nanomagnets manipulated with electric currents. This theory is useful for future quantum technologies.
