Positronium shouldn't last long enough to be interesting. It's an "atom" assembled from an electron and its antimatter twin — ...

Increasingly complex applications such as artificial intelligence require ever more powerful and power-hungry computers to run. Optical computing is a proposed solution to increase speed and power ...

One of the defining breakthroughs that set quantum physics apart from classical physics was the realization that matter behaves very differently at ...

How do organic solar cells work on the inside? The answer lies in structures far too small to see—and difficult to access even with advanced techniques. So far, researchers have relied mainly on X-ray ...

Crystallography is the science of analyzing the pattern produced by shining an X-ray beam through a material sample. A powder sample produces a different pattern than solid crystal. One longstanding ...

Advancements in structured illumination and computational imaging are revolutionizing semiconductor wafer inspection, ...

Transient reflectance of multilayer MoS₂ (a) shows prompt electronic response, while ultrafast electron diffraction (b-c) reveals delayed lattice heating, enabling quantitative modeling of energy ...
