The strength of the ice’s flexoelectric effect is on par with titanium dioxide and strontium titanate, two ceramic materials ...

For the first time, scientists have observed electrons in graphene behaving like a nearly perfect quantum fluid, challenging a long-standing puzzle in physics. By creating ultra-clean samples, the ...

Electrons in graphene can act like a perfect fluid, defying established physical laws. This finding advances both fundamental ...

An international team led by Prof. Gustau Catalan and Dr. Xin Wen at the Institut Català de Nanociència i Nanotecnologia in ...

The team's work appears in Nature Physics. As part of their levitation experiment, the researchers, led by adjunct professor of photonics Martin Frimmer, were able to eliminate the gravitational force ...

Frank Wilczek has one of the most brilliant and original minds in theoretical physics, having come up with the idea of time ...

To build a large-scale quantum computer that works, scientists and engineers need to overcome the spontaneous errors that quantum bits, or qubits, create as they operate. Scientists encode these ...

Quantum mechanics is one of the most successful theories in science — and makes much of modern life possible. Technologies ranging from computer chips to medical-imaging machines rely on the ...
