Technology
Where physics meets engineering. From quantum computers to next-generation solar cells — discover the technologies that physics makes possible.
Superconducting qubits, trapped ions, quantum error correction, and the algorithms that could transform computing — from theory to working hardware.
Silicon chips, transistors, diodes, and the solid-state physics that powers modern electronics — from band theory to nanoscale device fabrication.
Lasers, fibre optics, silicon photonics, and photonic crystals — the science of light that drives telecommunications and quantum technology.
Solar cells, batteries, nuclear fusion, and energy harvesting — the physics of converting, storing, and transmitting power for a sustainable future.
Small-scale plants could produce ammonia directly where it is needed. A global analysis involving the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) shows where and under what conditions such mini-plants could operate
Some scientific debates do not need louder claims. They need cleaner assumptions. From Bethe-Peierls cross-sections to CEνNS, graphene transport, stochastic rectification, and…
Consumers are more likely to buy cryptocurrencies when they see them as easy to use, trustworthy and beneficial, according to research published in the International Journal of Blockchains and Cryptoc
University of Arizona researchers have demonstrated a promising new application for graphene nanoribbons, a nanoscale semiconductor material with the potential to withstand extreme environments. The t
Older people are being left out of decisions about how artificial intelligence is being built.
Wenn wissenschaftliche Ideen ihren Weg in internationale Medien finden, geht es oft um mehr als nur eine einzelne Technologie. Es geht um neue Fragen, veränderte Perspektiven und…
A newly developed material for the electron contact improves the efficiency of single perovskite solar cells and perovskite/silicon tandem solar cells. The new material is based on a carborane molecul
Some researchers are leaning into biology for inspiration in computing. In particular, neuromorphic computing offers a brain-inspired approach to hardware that replaces traditional binary processing w
High-frequency waves classified as terahertz occupy a relatively underused region of the electromagnetic spectrum between infrared light and microwaves. Researchers have long recognized their unique p
India's next energy challenge may not be generating more electricity, but delivering continuous power wherever modern infrastructure depends on it. As artificial intelligence,…
Many of the advanced electronic components surrounding us in everyday life rely on polar materials to function. Polar materials have an uneven distribution of electric charge. This gives them a positi
A University of Houston professor of civil and environmental engineering is using artificial intelligence to make roads safer by connecting information that is usually analyzed separately. Lu Gao used
Superposition allows quantum particles to exist in multiple states simultaneously until they are measured or observed.
