Science and technology could be revolutionized by quantum computers, but building them from solid-state devices will not be easy. Robert W Keyes of IBM's research division outlines the challenges in ...

Taken from the October 2018 issue of Physics World, which celebrates 30 years of the world’s best physics magazine. James McKenzie reflects on the impact of the solid-state laser, a device in its ...

scope and states of condensed matter physics: "More is Different" "standard model" of solid state physics band structure: insulators and conductors experimental probes ...

Condensed matter physics, which analyzes the behavior of electrons in organized solid matter, has been treated as a completely separate field of study from soft matter physics, which deals with ...

Researchers have detailed the physics behind a phenomenon that allows them to create spin in liquid droplets using ultrasound waves, which concentrates solid particles suspended in the liquid. The ...

Metal clusters made of thousands of atoms showed quantum interference, offering new insight into how large objects follow quantum rules.

Physics is the study of the underlying laws and mechanisms explaining how the universe works. Most of what we do in daily life is based on a principle or law of physics—dealing with forces, motion, ...
