A recent breakthrough is the use of artificial intelligence (AI), which learns how to manipulate atoms to improve a material’s properties.

For decades, ferromagnetic materials have driven technologies like magnetic hard drives, magnetic random access memories and ...

The researchers write, "Our findings contribute to the ongoing tunneling time debate and can be viewed as a test of Bohmian trajectories in quantum mechanics.

Surface acoustic waves (SAWs) have recently emerged as a powerful tool for controlling excitonic states in two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides, enabling dynamic energy modulation and ...

In this breakthrough acoustic experiment, researchers have directly observed anti-Klein tunneling—a quantum-like phenomenon where chiral sound waves are entirely blocked by a barrier. Using ...

Quantum tunnelling — when a particle skips through a barrier that classical physics would forbid — happens faster when objects have less energy, find physicists who worked out a way to probe ...

Scientists at EPFL have created a revolutionary biosensor that doesn't need a light source—it makes its own glow using quantum tunneling. By guiding electrons through a nanostructure of gold and ...

Self-lighting chip uses quantum tunneling to spot a trillionth of a gram Engineers have harnessed quantum physics to detect the presence of biomolecules without the need for an external light ...
