A group of scientists has created a quantum material where electricity can flow without losing energy as heat. Until now, this was only seen in ...

A stretchy, conductive type of plastic could help power the next generation of implantable biomedical devices, like longer-lasting pacemakers or glucose monitors, according to Enrique Gomez, professor ...

BERKELEY, CA – The logic and memory functions of future electronic devices could shrink dramatically – to one or two nanometers (billionths of a meter) instead of the many tens of nanometers that ...

CAN a new garment be made out of old material? This is the problem which the authors have set themselves; and it must be admitted that they have not succeeded. They have produced an interesting and ...

THE power of transmitting large electric currents is one of the most characteristic properties of metals, and one to which they owe no insignificant fraction of their industrial importance. If we ...

A group of researchers from Nanyang Technological University in Singapore and MIT in the US, among others, has discovered something interesting about diamonds. The team has discovered that diamond ...

Warm dense matter is a state of matter that forms at extreme temperatures and pressures, like those found at the center of most stars and many planets, including Earth. It also plays a role in the ...

The thermoelectric effect can turn waste heat into electrical energy. To make use of it, special materials with unusual properties are required. A remarkable effect has now been demonstrated, which ...

Traditional physical-based models have generally been used to model the resistive-switching behavior of resistive-switching memory (RSM). Recently, vacancy-based conduction-filament (CF) growth models ...
