In the right combinations and conditions, two-dimensional materials can host intriguing and potentially valuable quantum ...

Researchers have harnessed nonlocal artificial materials to create optical systems that emulate parallel spaces, wormholes, ...

A study has found a rare form of one-dimensional quantum magnetism in a metallic compound, offering evidence into a phase space that has remained, until now, largely theoretical. The study comes at a ...

Japanese physicists have demonstrated for the first time that knotoid structures—stable knots—can naturally form within a ...

Scientists have created the first real-time 3D simulations of how lasers alter the quantum vacuum. Using cutting-edge computational modeling, scientists from the University of Oxford, in collaboration ...

(Nanowerk News) What if we could find a way to make electric currents flow, without energy loss? A promising approach for this involves using materials known as topological insulators. They are known ...

Imagine if you could "print" a tiny skyscraper using DNA instead of steel. That’s what researchers at Columbia and Brookhaven are doing—constructing intricate 3D nanostructures by harnessing the ...
