Atomic defects can tune carbon quantum dots across UV to near-infrared light, guiding cleaner design of sensors, bioimaging ...
Nanotechnology has quietly progressed through three distinct generations, and the third is now reshaping how deep-tech R&D itself must be organized.
In his decades-long career in tech journalism, Dennis has written about nearly every type of hardware and software. He was a founding editor of Ziff Davis’ Computer Select in the 1990s, senior ...
The discovery from the Trinity nuclear test site shows how extreme conditions can result in materials never before seen in nature or in the lab. The term “clathrates” denotes materials characterized ...
How nanoscale control changed materials science, from atomic-level design in coatings and quantum materials to bio-inspired ...
Researchers at the California NanoSystems Institute at UCLA published a step-by-step framework for determining the three-dimensional positions and elemental identities of atoms in amorphous materials.
How some of the world’s most precise clocks missed a very small beat. By Mike Ives and Adeel Hassan Time appeared to skip a beat last week when some of the world’s most accurate clocks were affected ...
The inside of giant planets can reach pressures more than one million times the Earth's atmosphere. As a result of that intense pressure, materials can adopt unexpected structures and properties.
This award-winning documentary reveals that U.S. officials suppressed--for decades--the most important footage shot in Hiroshima and Nagasaki (including by the U.S. Army) after the atomic bombings.
On August 6, 1945, the sky above the Japanese city of Hiroshima opened. A blinding flash, then a deafening sonic boom. An entire city pulverized in seconds. Thus began the nuclear age. Today, 80 years ...
