Superconductivity is a quantum state of matter characterized by an electrical resistance of zero and the expulsion of magnetic fields at low temperatures below a critical point. Superconductors, ...

Researchers have systematically charted a superconducting dome in thin films of strontium-doped lanthanum nickelate, ...

Optical frequency combs—laser sources that emit evenly spaced colors of light—are foundational, ubiquitous tools for precision measurement, found in optical clocks, gas-sensing spectrometers, and ...

Photovoltaic cells made from cadmium telluride (CdTe) – already widely used in solar energy generation – also excel at harvesting ambient light indoors, making them an excellent energy source for the ...

The new framework replaces approximations, accurately modeling current crowding and spreading resistance in 2D materials to improve high-performance semiconductor devices.

Schematic of an organic semiconductor-based device for direct detection of 5 MeV protons. The co-planar sensor is fabricated on a flexible plastic substrate by thermal evaporation of two ...

Their study has been published in the journal Science Advances. "Instead of increasing the power on the neutron source, which is extremely expensive, it's better to focus on improving optics," says ...

Thin films play a crucial role in the fabrication of several components and devices, such as protective coatings, integrated circuits, solar cells, and optical ...
