Researchers at the Institute for Molecular Science (IMS) have definitively resolved a two-decade-long controversy regarding the direction of electron ...

Quantum computers have the potential to solve certain calculations exponentially faster than a classic computer could, but more research is desperately needed to make their practical use a reality.

The behavior of electrons on a single-crystal gold surface was investigated. On the Au(111) surface, a difference in the ...

A layered form of graphene shows a rare semimetal state with balanced electrons and holes that becomes a topological ...

A recent collaborative research study between the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and the University of California at Santa Cruz was published in Nature Photonics. It discusses how spintronics can ...

As published Monday (Aug. 15) in Nature Materials, the research team used electron spin qubits as atomic-scale sensors, and also to effect the first experimental control of nuclear spin qubits in ...

In antiferromagnets, every other electron spin points in the opposite direction, hence there is no net magnetization. "Essentially, the antiferromagnetic order can lower the symmetries of the samples ...

Discover the groundbreaking concept of altermagnetism, a new magnetic order bridging ferromagnetism and antiferromagnetism ...
