Research shows that children who have books in their home and who talk about stories or learn letters with their families, are more likely to do well at school—not only in literacy but across the board. And these effects ...
Physicists at the University of Cologne have taken an important step forward in the pursuit of topological quantum computing by demonstrating the first-ever observation of Crossed Andreev Reflection (CAR) in topological insulator ...
In order to meet our goals for carbon neutralization by the 2050s, we need environmentally friendly fuels. Catalysts (and their precursor, precatalysts) are key components in the electrochemical water-splitting reaction that ...
A research team from Seoul National University College of Engineering has developed a technology to observe atomic structural changes of nanoparticles in three dimensions. Their study, which resolves a long-standing challenge ...
Researchers have developed a high-speed electro-optic switch that is energy-efficient, has low crosstalk and works across a broad bandwidth. Made using a scalable, chip-friendly process, this switch could enhance data capacity ...
Before there was light, there was cosmic inflation.
Silicon is the best-known semiconductor material. However, controlled nanostructuring drastically alters the material's properties. Using a specially developed etching apparatus, a team at HZB has now produced mesoporous ...
Keeping work surfaces clean during meat processing is a challenge. Bacteria from meat can attach, grow, and build up to create a biofilm that is difficult to remove, even on stainless steel surfaces used in industrial facilities. ...
Queensland is renowned for its fossils of Australia's largest back-boned animals—dinosaurs, of course, like the Jurassic Rhoetosaurus, the Cretaceous Wintonotitan, and other large sauropods.
Northwestern University researchers have identified structural features in engineered cell receptors that correlate with variations in receptor function.
