Combining nanotechnology and machine learning inspired by nature's spiderwebs, researchers were able to make a nanomechanical sensor vibrate in extreme isolation from everyday noise. This breakthrough has large implications for the study of gravity and dark matter, as well as the fields of quantum internet, navigation and sensing.
Scientists have developed a new technique for quantum gas microscopy that now allows imaging of three-dimensional quantum systems. The new method can be used to explore entirely new regimes.
Scientists have shown that they can manipulate single skyrmions - tiny magnetic vortices that could be used as computing bits in future ultra-dense information storage devices - using pulses of electric current, at room temperature.
Researchers have succeeded in addressing an apparently unattainable energy transition in an artificial atom using laser light. Making use of the so-called radiative Auger process, they were the first team to specifically excite it.
Scientists are building a new super-resolution microscope that uses laser light to study the inner workings and behaviours of superbugs to gain new insights into how they cause disease.
Researchers developed an ultra-thin wireless device that grows to the surface of bone and could someday help physicians monitor bone health and healing over long periods.
The involvement between electron transfer (ET) and catalytic reaction at electrocatalyst surface makes electrochemical process challenging to understand and control. How to experimentally determine ET process occurring at nanoscale is important to understand the overall electrochemical reaction process at active sites.
Researchers have developed a unique way of modifying the surfaces of nanoparticles within life-saving medications to provide infusions that can be delivered more quickly, but with a reduced risk of negative reactions.
