Scientists built a tiny clock from single-electron jumps to probe the true energy cost of quantum timekeeping. They discovered that reading the clock’s output requires vastly more energy than the clock uses to function. This measurement process also drives the...

Electrons can freeze into strange geometric crystals and then melt back into liquid-like motion under the right quantum conditions. Researchers identified how to tune these transitions and even discovered a bizarre “pinball” state where some electrons stay locked...

A few days ago, the International Iberian Nanotechnology Laboratory (INL) and University of Minho (UMinho) signed a licensing agreement with IPLEXMED, a spin-out company specializing in advanced medical diagnostics. The agreement grants the company rights to...

Researchers from IMDEA Nanociencia, Autonomous University of Madrid and INFN recently announced a breakthrough in the engineering of graphene - they found a way to open a bandgap in the material, that allows the flow of electricity in graphene to be controlled - an...

Laser light can physically distort Janus TMD materials, revealing how their asymmetrical structure amplifies light-driven forces. These effects could power breakthroughs in photonic chips, sensors, and tunable light technologies.

NanoXplore has announced it has entered into an exclusive, long-term supply agreement with Club Car, a leading name in the recreational products industry.This partnership will support the production of graphene-enhanced, high-performance solutions. The addition of...

Scientists have developed a new way to build rare-earth crystals that boosts quantum coherence to tens of milliseconds. This leap could extend quantum communication distances from city blocks to entire continents. The method uses atom-by-atom construction for...

Boron arsenide has dethroned diamond as the best heat conductor, thanks to refined crystal purity and improved synthesis methods. This discovery could transform next-generation electronics by combining record-breaking thermal conductivity with strong semiconductor...
