LEDs have inspired a new generation of electronics, but there is still work ahead if we want luminescent materials to consume less energy and have longer lifespans. Certain inorganic metals seem ...

Molecules containing four atoms are the largest yet to be cooled down to only a hundred billionths of a degree above absolute zero. The techniques researchers use for cooling individual atoms, such as ...

Physicists have chilled molecules to just a smidgen above absolute zero — colder than the afterglow of the Big Bang. Scientists have created such superchilled atoms, these are the coldest molecules ...

Researchers have now reproducibly demonstrated current blockade -- the ability to switch a device from the insulating to the conducting state where charge is added and removed one electron at a time - ...

In order to produce tiny electronic memories or sensors in future, it is essential to be able to arrange individual metal atoms on an insulating layer. Scientists at Bielefeld University's Faculty of ...
