A research team has directly observed the Meissner effect in two-dimensional superconductors using a new high-sensitivity ...

Nanostructured two-dimensional gold monolayers offer possibilities in catalysis, electronics, and nanotechnology. Nanostructured two-dimensional gold monolayers offer possibilities in catalysis, ...

Engineers have developed a record-setting nanomaterial which when stretched in one direction, expands perpendicular to the applied force. It is a common hack to stretch a balloon out to make it easier ...

In collaboration with international partners, researchers at the University of Stuttgart have experimentally demonstrated a previously unknown form of magnetism in atomically thin material layers. The ...

2D-XRD, or two-dimensional X-ray diffraction, is a powerful analytical technique used to study the atomic and molecular structure of crystalline materials at the nanoscale. It provides detailed ...

A research team has demonstrated that silicon nanospheres can strongly enhance second-harmonic generation (SHG) from an atomically thin semiconductor while preserving the circular polarization ...

The big picture: If successfully scaled to industrial production, these chips could extend Moore's Law into the atomic domain by enabling far greater component density without incurring unsustainable ...
