Transistors based on AlScN are promising for various industrial applications, such as data transfer, satellite communication, radar systems or autonomous…
The Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics (IPP) in Greifswald and the U.S. University of Wisconsin-Madison have founded a joint research project to…
A decades-old mystery: where are the most energetic particles coming from?
Imaging techniques that employ quantum light are becoming of major importance nowadays, since their capabilities in terms of resolution and sensitivity can…
When one imagines a swimmer, their image would probably be of either an Olympian performing the front-crawl, a Salmon fighting upstream, or a shark racing…
A quantum gas can be tied into knots using magnetic fields. Our researchers were the first to produce these knots as part of a collaboration between Aalto…
Quantum physics describes photons as light particles. Achieving an interaction between a single photon and a single atom is a huge challenge due to the tiny…
Perhaps you know that this is due to fusion reactions where four nuclei of hydrogen join together to produce a helium nucleus. Such nucleosynthesis processes…
Countries across the globe are making efforts to improve the safety of the nuclear waste storage in order to prevent release of radioactive nuclides to the…
In order to make transistors that operate using the spin of electrons, rather than their charge, it is necessary to find a way of switching spin currents on…
Energy is information. Lengthening the time during which a system is capable of retaining energy before losing it to the local environment is a key goal for…
“Polymers are very, very useful materials when it comes to modern applications.”
The entry probe of the Galileo mission to Jupiter entered the planet's atmosphere in 1995 in fiery fashion. As the probe descended from Mach 50 to Mach 1 and…
Laser pulses have long been utilized in research laboratories, industrial production, and medical therapies. In these applications it is often crucial that the…
It is an exotic phenomenon that nobody was able to explain for years: when energy is supplied to a thin layer of the material tungsten diselenide, it begins to…
Theoretical work had predicted that it should be possible to use a high-frequency electric field to excite a group of skyrmions in the sample so that their…
