How do you keep a copper catalyst from losing its oomph? Just add a dusting of platinum, says a new study published in Nature Materials. A team of researchers, including scientists at the Department ...

Quantum technologies, devices and systems that operate leveraging quantum mechanical effects, could tackle some tasks more ...

Have you ever felt like you’ve been stuck in the gap between ideas and reality? You sketch something exciting, imagine users paying for it, and then the project dies in a folder of unfinished files.

Researchers used artificial intelligence to redesign hydrogen fuel cell catalysts, boosting performance and durability while cutting costs for clean transport.

New research shows 2D carbon materials can store electrical states, reshaping how AI chips manage power and lower electricity ...

Probing the vibration of atoms provides detailed information on local structure and bonding that define material properties. Tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS) offers extremely high resolution to ...

When job architecture is strong, roles operate as coherent "molecules" with clear outcomes. When it is weak, the organization becomes a loose collection of "atoms" with no meaningful structure to ...

The discovery of bright yet stable pigments is vanishingly rare, making them hugely valuable. Now chemist Mas Subramanian is unpicking the atomic code of colour and homing in on our most-wanted hue ...

Despite the headline, this isn’t really a story about superconductivity—at least not the superconductivity that people care ...

Phonons are the collective vibrations that move through a solid. They can be thought of as waves traveling across the atomic ...

Cornell researchers have used high-resolution 3D imaging to detect, for the first time, the atomic-scale defects in computer chips that can sabotage their performance. The imaging method, which was ...
