Transistors, the building blocks of modern electronics, are typically made of silicon. Because it's a semiconductor, this ...

Quantum physics often reveals phenomena that defy common sense. A new theory of quantum scarring deepens our understanding of ...

Phononic circuits are emerging devices that can manipulate sound waves (i.e., phonons) in ways that resemble how electronic ...

This work, combining behavioural genetics and calcium imaging, provides evidence for a form of learning in Drosophila that derives solely from direct or (optogenetically induced) phantom experience of ...

A team of researchers from Boston College has created a new metallic specimen where the motion of electrons flows in the same way water flows in a pipe—fundamentally changing from particle-like to ...

Understanding the physics of nonlinear optical response in subwavelength plasmonic resonators is of fundamental importance ...

Soft devices made by rolling up rubber-like sheets patterned with 2D electronics can monitor, stimulate and navigate deep ...

Proteins can conduct electrons efficiently over tens of nanometers when contact resistance is removed, revealing their ...

Molybdenum is looking increasingly promising as a replacement for a variety of metals commonly used in semiconductor ...

The revelation that electrons in the single-atom-thick material known as graphene can act much like a frictionless fluid is a ...

Much recent progress has been made in spintronics, for example, that spin loss can be converted back into magnetisation, making spintronics electronics even more energy-efficient, or that spintronics ...
