A new generation of LCD with higher efficiency, resolution and color performance

A research team has developed a new Liquid-crystal display (LCD), which image resolution, energy efficiency as well as color saturation were markedly enhanced, achieving a crucial breakthrough in display technology.

Scientists pump up chances for quantum computing

An international team has developed a ground-breaking single-electron pump. The electron pump device developed by the researchers can produce one billion electrons per second and uses quantum mechanics to control them one-by-one.

Graphene and the atomic crystals that could see next big breakthrough in tech

What could we do with layered structures with just the right layers? What would the properties of materials be if we could really arrange the atoms the way we want them?

X-ray experiment confirms theoretical model for making new materials

By observing changes in materials as they're being synthesized, scientists hope to learn how they form and come up with recipes for making the materials they need for next-gen energy technologies.

Electron spectrometer deciphers quantum mechanical effects

Electronic circuits are miniaturized to such an extent that quantum mechanical effects become noticeable. Using photoelectron spectrometers, solid-state physicists and material developers can discover more about such electron-based processes.

Mixed halide chemistry can be used to control magnetism in ultrathin magnetic devices

Research team reports expanding the planar boundaries that previously confined the manipulation of magnetization.

Electronic skin stretched to new limits

A metal carbide within a hydrogel composite senses, stretches and heals like human skin for use in medicine and robotics.
