Lithographically carved graphene and boron nitride 'sandwich' yields outstanding electrical propertiesCredit: Carl Otto Moesgaard Graphene Flagship researchers solved one of the challenges of making graphene nano-electronics effective: to…

New metasurfaces can reflect light or sound waves into any desired direction -- or even split energy into more than oneCredit: Aalto University In our daily lives, we can find many examples of manipulation of reflected waves such as…

With a tweak of only 0.3 millimeters, a material designed to absorb all light of a specific color demands the waves be synchronized as wellCredit: Willie Padilla, Duke University DURHAM, N.C. -- Researchers at Duke University have…

To design future quantum technologies, scientists pinpoint how microwaves interact with matterCredit: OIST Tiny moving particles make up everything in our physical world-- including modern electronics, whose function relies on the…

Credit: Ann Sizemore Blevins Quantum computers promise to be a revolutionary technology because their elementary building blocks, qubits, can hold more information than the binary, 0-or-1 bits of classical computers. But to harness this…
