Electrons are tiny and constantly in motion. How they behave in a crystal lattice determines key material properties: electrical conductivity, magnetism, or novel quantum effects. Anyone aiming to ...

Researchers have revealed how bacteria precisely control the genes that trigger cell division. The study shows that the MraZ protein, which normally forms a donut-shaped structure, must bend and ...

Gerd Binnig's creation of the scanning tunnelling microscope has been fundamental to nanoscience, influencing diverse ...

I’m a third-year PhD student here at the University of Florida. I work under Dr. Aitkaliyeva, and I do research on metallic nuclear fuels. So basically, we irradiate these fuels in a reactor, and then ...

Scientists at Caltech have figured out how to precisely engineer tiny three-dimensional (3D) metallic pieces with nanoscale dimensions. The process can work with any metal or metal alloy and yields ...

A "super microscope" capable of magnifying the tiniest of objects and usually only found in research labs has been taken inside an Australian prison ...

Researchers at the Department of Energy's SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory and collaborating institutions recently built a generative AI model that can recreate molecular structures from the ...

Scientists in the US have uploaded a fruit fly to a computer simulation, while an Australian lab has taught neurons on a glass chip to play a 90s video game. How long before we are all living in a sci ...

Cells behave like cities and organelles carry out infrastructural roles: mitochondria are powerhouses, the endoplasmic ...

EM images reveal how Marburg virus slips into human cells, exposing glycoprotein “cap” tricks and weak spots that could guide future antivirals, antibodies and vaccines.

In this Q&A, you will learn about some of the technologies and techniques that are making it possible to address advanced packaging challenges.
