Combining trapped atoms and photonics for new quantum devices

Quantum information systems offer faster, more powerful computing methods than standard computers to help solve many of the world's toughest problems. Yet fulfilling this ultimate promise will require bigger and more interconnected ...

AI-powered optical detection to thwart counterfeit chips

The semiconductor industry has grown into a $500 billion global market over the last 60 years. However, it is grappling with dual challenges: a profound shortage of new chips and a surge of counterfeit chips, introducing ...

Scientists resolves a long-debated anomaly in how nuclei spin

Atomic nuclei come in different shapes, varying from football-like ("prolate") to pancake-like ("oblate"). Prolate and oblate shapes have different moments of inertia. This is a body's resistance to having its speed of rotation ...

Physicists control electronic properties of moiré crystals

If you make a material thinner and thinner, at a certain point it undergoes a seemingly miraculous transformation: A two-dimensional material that consists of only one or two layers of molecules sometimes has completely different ...
