New nanophotonic tweezers developed by Cornell researchers can fit on a chip less than one-inch square, making it easier and more efficient to

Researchers grew a thin film of one of the oldest known superconductors on top of a semiconductor, and for the first time measured the electronic properties of the junction between the two materials, paving the way for hybrid superconductor-semiconductor quantum devices.

A crystal structure that combines a semiconductor and superconductor is a tantalizing prospect to create energy-efficient computers, or quantum

When a master chef develops a new cake recipe, she doesn’t try every conceivable combination of ingredients to see which one works best. The chef uses

Over the past several decades, researchers have moved from using electric currents to manipulating light waves in the near-infrared range for...

Based on micro-ring resonators to reduce the size and power demands of visible spectrum phase modulator.

Led by NREL senior wind technology engineer Derek Berry, the team’s novel techniques could revolutionize how wind turbine blades are manufactured.

A team of National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) researchers are furthering their revolutionary combination of recyclable thermoplastics and additive manufacturing (better known as three-dimensional [3D] printing) to manufacture advanced wind turbine blades. The advance was made possible by funding from the U.S. Department of Energy’s Advanced Manufacturing Office—awards designed to…
