Researchers have developed a technique to fabricate high-performance optical microstructures using lithium niobate, opening the door to ultra-efficient integrated photonic circuits, quantum photonics, microwave-to-optical conversion and more.
Researchers map magnetic fields of bacterial cells and nano-objects for the first time
Researchers have demonstrated for the first time that the magnetic fields of bacterial cells and magnetic nano-objects in liquid can be studied at high resolution using electron microscopy.
Nanoparticle gel formation revealed
Studies by a research team utilizing high-brightness x-rays provide important insight into a key question that has long puzzled scientists, namely, why do nanoparticle gels take so long to form after a quench even though the constituent nanoparticles are rapidly diffusing through the suspension?
Molecular mapping made easy
Standardized, freely available method raising interest in forensics, agriculture and microbiome studies.
A particle like slow light
Scientists made a remarkable discovery: Particles known as 'Weyl fermions' were discovered in materials with strong interaction between electrons. Just like light particles, they have no mass but nonetheless they move extremely slowly.
Researchers discover a Valleytronics route towards reversible computer
By harnessing the unusual electrical properties of 2D materials such as few-layer black phosphorus and topological Weyl/Dirac semimetal thin films, researchers designed a versatile all-electric-controlled valley filter and demonstrated, for the first time, a concrete working design of valleytronic logic gate capable of performing the full set of two-input Boolean logics.
Understanding the impact of defects on the properties of MoS2
Researchers have shown that defects in monolayer molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) exhibit electrical switching, providing new insights into the electrical properties of this material.
Nanofractionation platform with parallel mass spec to ID cytochrome CYP1A2 inhibitors
New research presents a fast, robust and accurate methodology for correlating compound identity to CYP1A2 potency of inhibitors in metabolic mixtures.
Graphene floating on water does not repel water but rather attracts it
Researchers have demonstrated that graphene floating on water does not repel water, as many researchers believe, but rather attracts it.
Quantum coupling
Physicists link atoms and superconductors in key step towards new hardware for quantum computers and networks.
'Hot' electrons heat up solar energy research
Nanoscientists have discovered new, better and faster ways to convert energy from light into energetic electrons.
Fluorescent nanomedicine can guide tumor removal, kill remaining cancer cells
Scientists have developed a nanomedicine platform for cancer that can help doctors know which tissue to cut out as well as kill any malignant cells that can't be surgically removed.
