Electronic Read-out of Quantum Bits
August 16, 2012 Quantum computers promise to reach computation speeds far beyond that of today’s computers. As they would use quantum effects, however, they would also be susceptible to external interferences. ... > full story -
Future Light Component Produced in Printing Press
August 15, 2012 Scientists have produced organic light-emitting electrochemical cells (LECs) using a roll-to-roll compatible process under ambient ... > full story -
Graphene's Behavior Depends on Where It Sits: Materials Beneath Determine How It React Chemically and Electrically
August 14, 2012 Surprising new experiments show that a one-atom-thick material called graphene, a form of pure carbon whose atoms are joined in a chicken-wire-like lattice, behaves quite differently depending on the ... > full story -
Physicists Explore Properties of Electrons in Revolutionary Material
August 10, 2012 Scientists have found a new way to examine certain properties of electrons in graphene – a very thin material that may hold the key to new technologies in computing and other ... > full story -
A Direct Look at Graphene: Direct Imaging Confirms Importance of Electron-Electron Interactions in Graphene
August 2, 2012 Researchers have recorded the first direct observations at microscopic lengths of how electrons and holes respond to a charged impurity in graphene. The results point to interactions between ... > full story -
Dramatic Miniaturization of Metamaterials? Reluctant Electrons Enable 'Extraordinarily Strong' Negative Refraction
August 1, 2012 A new technique using kinetic inductance shows promise for dramatic miniaturization of ... > full story -
Graphene Re-Knits Its Holes
July 29, 2012 Scientists have discovered that the 'miracle material', graphene, undergoes a self repairing process to mend ... > full story -
New Dimension of Physics Research: Cutting the Graphene Cake
July 29, 2012 Researchers have demonstrated that graphene can be used as a building block to create new 3D crystal structures which are not confined by what nature can produce. Sandwiching individual graphene ... > full story -
Photovoltaics from Any Semiconductor: Opens Door to More Widespread Solar Energy Devices
July 26, 2012 Researchers have developed a technology that enables low-cost, high efficiency solar cells to be made from virtually any semiconductor material. This opens the door to the use of plentiful, ... > full story -
Diamond in the Rough: Half-Century Puzzle Solved
July 22, 2012 A team of mineral physicists has for the first time confirmed through high-pressure experiments the structure of cold-compressed graphite, a form of carbon that is comparable in hardness to its ... > full story
