The secret to lossless current flow is superconductors. However, the development of superconducting diodes has only lately emerged as a crucial area for basic research.
Researchers at the Institute for Quantum Matter prove that mechanically manipulating a certain type of metal can change its magnetic properties, ushering in new applications for the rare and underutilized field of piezomagnetism
Utilising a technique known as DNA origami, researchers have created the smallest flow-driven motors in the world which self-assemble under flow.
Using just a handful of quantum bits, researchers have used a quantum computer to simulate an infinite line of electron-like particles. The technique could be used to better understand the behaviour of molecules in materials
Electrons find each other repulsive. Nothing personal – it’s just that their negative charges repel each other. So getting them to pair up and travel together, like they do in superconducting mate ...
