The simplest and most common element, first in the periodic table, shouldn’t be difficult to crack, right? “What could be more simple than an assembly of electrons and protons?” asks Neil Aschcroft, a ...
Researchers from the RIKEN Center for Emergent Matter Science and collaborators have succeeded in creating a "superlattice" of semiconductor quantum dots that can behave like a metal, potentially ...
Researchers used epitaxial strain on ultra-thin ruthenium oxide layers to induce magnetism in a material typically known for being metallic but nonmagnetic. (Nanowerk News) In a new study, researchers ...
