Two shallow fire pits, dug side by side nearly 9,000 years ago in the Judean Hills, are forcing archaeologists to rethink a ...

The technique exploits a material’s crystal structure to create nanoscale patterns directly onto hard materials used in chips ...

A new chip-making technique exploits a material's crystal structure to create nanoscale patterns at room temperature directly onto hard materials used in devices, including silica. The method could ...

Physicists at Peking University have uncovered a new way to confine light far beyond conventional limits — without relying on ...

In 1982, materials scientist Dan Shechtman observed an unusual tenfold symmetry in an aluminum-manganese alloy, defying the ...

Strain engineering, which involves deliberately stretching or compressing a crystal lattice, is used to boost the speed of electron flow in a device. Even a fraction of percent change in lattice ...

Antiferromagnetic materials, with antiparallel atomic spins and zero net magnetization, are fast and resistant to external magnetic interference, making them ideal for high-speed, high-density ...

An Electron lifts off April 22 (U.S. time) from Launch Complex 1 in New Zealand carrying eight JAXA-sponsored cubesats. Credit: JAXA WASHINGTON — A Rocket Lab Electron launched a set of cubesats ...

Pattern made its debut on the Nasdaq after raising $300 million for the company and its investors in an IPO. The Utah-based company is one of the top sellers on Amazon's third-party marketplace. "No ...

Optical dispersion occurs when the refractive index of a material changes with the wavelength of incoming light. This variation causes different colors to move at different speeds in transparent media ...

For the first time, scientists have used ultrafast X-ray flashes to take a direct image of a single electron as it moved during a chemical reaction. In the new study, published Aug. 20 in the journal ...
