Quantum engineers have spent years trying to tame the fragility of qubits, only to be thwarted by the tiniest imperfections ...

Superconductors (materials that conduct electricity without resistance) have fascinated physicists for more than a century. While conventional superconductors are well understood, a new class of ...

Whether in a smartphone or laptop, semiconductors form the basis of modern electronics and accompany us constantly in ...

Researchers have made germanium superconducting for the first time, a feat that could transform computing and quantum technologies. Using molecular beam epitaxy to embed gallium atoms precisely, the ...

New measurements in germanium reveal how excited electrons drive lattice vibrations that govern energy flow and heating in semiconductors.

HEFEI -- An international research team has developed a "self-etching" technique to process soft and unstable ionic crystal lattice semiconductors, specifically 2D perovskite thin-layer single ...
