Free online Python course Hex N Bit has recently launched a free entrey-level online course on Python. The duration is 150 minutes and includes self-paced e-learning videos, codes, projects and quizzes. Upon completion, the company will provide a recognised certificate. Through this initiative, the company’s aims to provide exposure to candidates for in-demand technologies and hopes to build confidence in students and make coding truly fun and easy to practice. Apart from this, Hex N Bit plans to launch more such free resources with projects in the fields of Artificial Intelligence, Intern...

 E-Mail Batteries are a part of everyday modern life, powering everything from laptops, phones and robot vacuums to hearing aids, pacemakers and even electric cars. But these batteries potentially pose safety and environmental risks. In a study recently published in Cell Reports Physical Science, researchers at Texas A&M University investigated the components of a different kind of battery -- a metal-free, water-based battery -- which would reduce the flammable nature of standard batteries and decrease the number of metal elements used in their production. Most batteries are Li-ion and cont...

2D Puddles of Electrons Emerge in a 3D Superconducting Material It's an example of how surprising properties can spontaneously emerge in complex materials—a phenomenon scientists hope to harness for novel technologies April 13, 2021 Carolina Parra (center), who as a Stanford postdoc carried out the experiments that led to the visualization of these intriguing results, now heads a lab at the Federico Santa María Technical University in Valparaíso, Chile, focusing on interdisciplinary studies of nanoscale biological materials. She recently won a grant to acquire and operate the first-ever l...

Date Time Share SLAC It’s an example of how surprising properties can spontaneously emerge in complex materials – a phenomenon scientists hope to harness for novel technologies. Creating a two-dimensional material, just a few atoms thick, is often an arduous process requiring sophisticated equipment. So scientists were surprised to see 2D puddles emerge inside a three-dimensional superconductor – a material that allows electrons to travel with 100% efficiency and zero resistance – with no prompting. Within those puddles, superconducting electrons acted as if they were confined inside...

The emergence of 2D puddles of superconductivity within a 3D superconductor may be an example of how 3D superconductors reorganize themselves just before undergoing an abrupt shift into an insulating state. It also suggests a novel and potentially easier way to make 2D materials.
