Researchers have uncovered a way to manipulate DNA at the atomic level using electric field gradients to control nitrogen ...

Chipmakers turn to silicon for its crystal structure, which can be lightly salted ... so every silicon atom takes more energy to move. Silicon doesn't start acting like carbon until you reach ...

Now, researchers at the University of New South Wales (UNSW) have brought a twist to the famous Schrödinger’s cat thought experiment, using a heavy atom and a silicon chip to address one of the ...

But this week, researchers described a lithium-sulfur battery that still has over 80 percent of its original capacity after 25,000 charge/discharge cycles. All it took was a solid electrolyte that was ...

Some elements in the periodic table, such as carbon, silicon, and germanium ... The "spare" electron from each dopant atom acts like a negative charge, so semiconductors of this type are called ...

Graphene is a material poised to revolutionise the electronics and semiconductor industries. Once a laboratory curiosity, it now faces the critical challenge ...

Researchers have developed advanced terahertz photodetectors containing 'living' microelectrodes. A vanadium dioxide (VO2) layer was precisely deposited on a silicon substrate. Temperature regulation ...
