Researchers have tested models of edge conduction with a device built on top of the semiconductor heterostructure which consists of gold gates that come close together. Voltage is applied on the gates ...
The crystal structure of these atomically thin materials makes them extremely sensitive to mechanical strain – tiny stretches or compressions of the atomic lattice. In principle, this strain ...
An international research collaboration with the involvement of the UAB demonstrates for the first time that memristors, electronic devices at the nanoscale, can easily calibrate electrical resistance ...

A new technical paper titled “Quantum interference enhances the performance of single-molecule transistors” was published by researchers at Queen Mary University of London, University of Oxford, ...
Quantum computing could revolutionize our world. For specific and crucial tasks, it promises to be exponentially faster than the zero-or-one binary technology that underlies today’s machines, from ...
At the nanoscale, where device dimensions approach the electron's mean free path, the scattering events that typically hinder electron motion in bulk materials can be substantially reduced. In an ...
Scientists and engineers have announced a significant advancement in developing fault-tolerant qubits for quantum computing. In a pair of articles, they report that, in experiments with flakes of ...
