Research suggests some metals’ semicore electrons may be more active on Earth’s surface than previously thought.

Virtual particles may not be real, but they help physicists track how forces move, and allow for incredibly precise ...

Silicides—alloys of silicon and metals long used in microelectronics—are now being explored again for quantum hardware. But their use faces a critical challenge: achieving phase purity, since some ...

Inside every lithium-ion battery, there’s a tiny dance going on. When you use your device, lithium ions migrate from the ...
