Though the process of designing a chip using open-source tools may seem daunting at first, it’s an invaluable learning ...

Enrique Rico Ortega and Sofia Vallecorsa explain how quantum computing will allow physicists to model complex dynamics, from ...

Rats exhibit significant recovery of locomotor function following incomplete spinal cord injuries, albeit with altered gait expression and reduced speed and stepping frequency. These changes likely ...

With major manufacturers racing to make smartphones ever thinner, ways to minimize the size of smartphone components have become increasin ...

The next-gen substrate allows for denser circuitry for smaller, higher-performance semiconductor substrates, and improved ...

In everyday life, many systems obey simple, linear rules: if you pull twice as hard on a spring, it stretches twice as far.

As few as five electrons in a semiconductor can exhibit collective behaviour, forming a “Coulomb liquid”, according to researchers in Europe. This extends the study of correlated systems to electron ...

As the number of particles in a physical system increases, its properties can change and different phase transitions (i.e., shifts into different phases of matter) can take place. Microscopic systems ...

Caltech scientists have found a fast and efficient way to add up large numbers of Feynman diagrams, the simple drawings ...

Predicting how molecular changes affect the brain's overall activity is a major challenge in neuroscience. Many deep ...

Designing electronic drug delivery pens require component-level design choices that prioritize size, efficiency, and ...
