Liquids and solutions are complex environments—think, for example, of sugar dissolving in water, where each sugar molecule ...

This achievement removes one of the biggest roadblocks in quantum materials science and brings practical quantum devices much ...

A revolutionary achievement could pave the way for smaller, more efficient nuclear clocks. Last year, a research team led by UCLA achieved a milestone scientists had pursued for half a century. They s ...

By building an atomic equivalent of the critical Josephson junction, scientists can now study how energy is lost and excitations form.

This video explores the fundamental components of an atom, including protons, neutrons, and electrons, challenging the ...

Researchers have discovered how to design and place single-photon sources at the atomic scale inside ultrathin 2D materials, ...

It is partly thanks to image processing technology in the scanner but also a special material called cadmium zinc telluride ...

Using the world’s most powerful X-ray laser, scientists have filmed atoms performing an eternal quantum dance that never ...

A titanium-based metal-organic framework achieves record electron storage density among MOFs and releases these accumulated ...

Scientists have uncovered that some atoms in liquids don't move at all—even at extreme temperatures—and these anchored atoms dramatically alter the way materials freeze. Using advanced electron ...

From a particle smasher encircling the moon to an “impossible” laser, five scientists reveal the experiments they would run ...
