A continuous phase transition is usually diagnosed through critical exponents and scaling laws. Yet the deeper fingerprint of criticality is...

A new study published in Nature Chemistry is peeling back one of chemistry’s most elusive fingerprints: the infrared (IR) spectrum...

Exceptional points (EPs) are a striking feature of modern physics, marking locations in parameter space where not only eigenvalues but...

Researchers from the University of Amsterdam and the University of New South Wales have resolved a long-standing question in atomic...

Photonic microchips are becoming the hidden workhorses of modern communications, AI data centers, and emerging quantum technologies. Instead of moving...

Quantum computing’s big promise—crunching hard optimization and chemistry problems faster and with less energy than today’s supercomputers—is increasingly within reach....

A team of researchers has unveiled a fabrication route that could push quantum dot light-emitting diodes (QLEDs) toward sharper, full-colour...

Integrated photonic circuits—microscopic channels that guide light instead of electrical current—are becoming essential for scalable photonics and high-bandwidth communications. As...

A new approach to obesity and metabolic syndrome is challenging the long-standing playbook of drugs and conventional prebiotics, which largely...

A new microscopy approach is turning the lens on one of cell biology’s most elusive targets: lipid droplets. In a...
