Scientists create predictive model for hydrogen nanobubble interaction in metals

The researchers believe their study may enable quantitative understanding and evaluation of hydrogen-induced damage in hydrogen-rich environments such as fusion reactor cores.

Physicists find first possible 3D quantum spin liquid

There?s no known way to prove a three-dimensional ?quantum spin liquid? exists, so physicists did the next best thing: They showed their single crystals of cerium zirconium pyrochlore had the right stuff to qualify as the first possible 3D version of the long-sought state of matter.

2D perovskite materials found to have unique, conductive edge states

A new class of 2D perovskite materials with edges that are conductive like metals and cores that are insulating was found by researchers who said these unique properties have applications in solar cells and nanoelectronics.

Artificial intelligence designs metamaterials used in invisibility cloaks

Researchers have developed a design with a higher degree of freedom which allows to choose materials and to design photonic structures arbitrarily by using Deep Learning.

'Smart' metamaterial textiles boost connectivity between wearable sensors by 1,000 times

Researchers have invented a completely new way for wearable devices to interconnect. They incorporated conductive textiles into clothing to dynamically connect several wearable devices at once.

DNA replication machinery captured at atom-level detail

Scientists reveal a crystal structure that illustrates a mechanism that powers and possibly starts DNA replication.

Weyl fermions discovered in another class of materials

Up to now, Weyl fermions had only been found in certain non-magnetic materials. Now however, for the very first time, scientists have experimentally proved their existence in another type of material: a paramagnet with intrinsic slow magnetic fluctuations.
