A key factor for the performance of sensors is the speed at which the system returns to its initial state after a disturbance ...

As the demand for smarter, smaller, and more energy-efficient electronics surges, the limits of conventional 3D semiconductors are becoming impossible to ignore. Now, researchers from Netaji Subhas ...

A new growth method for boron nitride films produces single-photon emitters at room temperature by tuning argon flow, ...

The Kardar-Parisi-Zhang equation has been experimentally verified for the first time on 2D surfaces - thanks to sophisticated material design and polaritons. The question of how surfaces grow is one ...

Crystals, bacterial colonies, flame fronts: the growth of surfaces was first described in the 1980s by the ...

2H-NbO₂—a novel van der Waals oxide synthesized by researchers from Japan—exhibits strongly correlated electronic properties with two-dimensional flexibility. By chemically extracting lithium ions ...

The atomic lattice structure of the layered magnetic semiconductor chromium sulfide bromide (CrSBr) have magnetic moments, or spins, that align with each other and alternate on each layer. This ...

Researchers have discovered a new 2D material, confirming decade-old prediction. More than ten years ago, researchers at Rice University led by materials scientist Boris Yakobson predicted that boron ...
