From computer chips to quantum dots—technological platforms were only made possible thanks to a detailed understanding of the ...
Imagine placing an object under a microscope and pressing a button to rearrange the surface atoms with atomic-scale precision. This once sci-fi scenario is now a reality thanks to pioneering research ...
A new AI model generates realistic synthetic microscope images of atoms, providing scientists with reliable training data to accelerate materials research and atomic scale analysis.
Currently employed computational methods to simulate materials and their mechanical behavior are based on molecular dynamics (MD) with atomistic force-fields. These methods provide an excellent ...
The heart of a minuscule atomic clock—believed to be 100 times smaller than any other atomic clock—has been demonstrated by scientists at the Commerce Department’s National Institute of Standards and ...
Superconductors are materials with no electrical resistance whatsoever, commonly requiring extremely low temperatures. They are used in a wide range of domains, from medical applications to a central ...
“To improve transistor density and electronic performance, next-generation semiconductor devices are adopting three-dimensional architectures and feature sizes down to the few-nm regime, which require ...
We can see the virus here thanks to cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM), an extremely cool imaging technique that lets ...
Global warming is an existential threat to life on Earth. As our planet further industrializes, the release of greenhouse gases continues to rise. One of the foremost of those gases is carbon dioxide, ...
