Scientists have successfully engineered an enzyme capable of breaking down the stubborn man-made bonds between silicon and carbon that exist in widely used chemicals known as siloxanes, or silicones. This breakthrough marks an initial step towards making these persistent environmental chemicals biod...

The performance of numerous cutting-edge technologies, from lithium-ion batteries to the next wave of superconductors, hinges on a physical characteristic called intercalation. Predicting which intercalated materials will be stable poses a significant challenge, leading to extensive trial-and-error ...

Researchers are leveraging the established silicon infrastructure to pioneer donor spin qubits for quantum computing. The EQUSPACE consortium, short for Enabling New Quantum Frontiers with Spin Acoustics in Silicon, has secured €3.2 million in funding from the European Innovation Council’s (EI...

A team at the University of Bristol developed SLCFETs, a breakthrough transistor structure that leverages a latch effect in GaN materials to enhance speed and power, advancing the future of 6G. Self-driving cars that eliminate traffic jams, receiving a healthcare diagnosis instantly without leaving ...
