Mechanical resonators are extensively used in high-tech industry, to mark time in electronic components, and to stabilize radio transmissions. Most mechanical resonators damp (slow down) in a ...

Scientists from Princeton University have found that one of the most intriguing phenomena in condensed-matter physics -- known as the quantum Hall effect -- can occur in nature in a way that no one ...

Researchers from the University of Innsbruck, the Collège de France, and the Université Libre de Bruxelles have developed a simple yet powerful method to reveal anyons—exotic quantum particles that ...

Aluminum has long been treated as a workhorse metal, valued for its light weight and corrosion resistance rather than any exotic behavior. Now researchers are revealing a subtler power hidden in its ...

(Nanowerk News) A simple sheet of graphene has noteworthy properties due to a quantum phenomenon in its electron structure named Dirac cones in honor of British theoretical physicist Paul Dirac ...

- Published today in Science, the discovery marks the creation and observation of the first molecule with a half-Möbius electronic topology. - It shows how quantum computers can directly contribute to ...

CAMBRIDGE, MASS.--A motif of Japanese basketweaving known as the kagome pattern has preoccupied physicists for decades. Kagome baskets are typically made from strips of bamboo woven into a highly ...
