The incessant demand for more speed in chips requires forcing more energy through ever-smaller devices, increasing current density and threatening long-term chip reliability. While this problem is ...

Physicists in China say that they have made an important advance towards developing spintronics devices made from graphene by generating a pure spin current in the material – something that has proven ...

Quasi-1D zirconium telluride nanoribbons boast an exceptionally high current density – of around 100 MA/cm 2 – according to new experiments by researchers at the University of California, Riverside ...

The Nobel Physics Prize was awarded on Tuesday to three scientists for their work on attoseconds, which are almost unimaginably short periods of time. Their work using lasers gives scientists a tool ...

A new study reveals a "pinball phase" in a Wigner crystal, where electrons act as both solid and liquid in a quantum ...

Princeton physicists have discovered an abrupt change in quantum behavior while experimenting with a three-atom-thin insulator that can be easily switched into a superconductor. The research promises ...

The Master of Science in Physics offers advanced training in core areas of physics and topics of current research. Students wishing to complete this master's degree will find a learning environment ...
