In a groundbreaking discovery, physicists have uncovered a strange hybrid state of matter where electrons oscillate between ...

Ferroelectric materials are used in infrared cameras, medical ultrasounds, computer memory and actuators that turn electric ...

Electrons can freeze into strange geometric crystals and then melt back into liquid-like motion under the right quantum ...

The same pulling force that causes “tears” in a glass of wine also shapes embryos. It’s another example of how genes exploit ...

A collaborative European research team led by physicists from Slovak Academy of Sciences has theorized a new approach to ...

Controlling magnetic states in materials typically requires continuous power or only works in rare, specialized systems. Researchers developed a general theory showing how electric fields can ...

Superconductivity occurs when electrons pair up, rather than scattering apart as they do in normal conductors or in everyday ...

MIT scientists uncovered direct evidence of unconventional superconductivity in magic-angle graphene by observing a distinctive V-shaped energy gap. The discovery hints that electron pairing in this ...

MIT researchers uncovered clear evidence of unconventional superconductivity in magic-angle twisted trilayer graphene.

Electricity doesn’t flow the way most people imagine. Instead of electrons rushing through wires like water in a pipe, energy moves as an electromagnetic field surrounding the wire. The real current ...
