Researchers have uncovered an interface layer that may affect the performance of certain superconducting qubits.

Researchers have used equipment originally intended for astronomy observation to capture transformations in the nuclear structure of atomic nuclei, reports a new study. A group of researchers have ...

A 40-atom gold nanocluster breaks from gold's signature dense packing, forming square atomic planes with a central channel that accelerates electron relaxation about 80x.

Researchers have taken atomic diffraction to a new level, revealing surprising behaviors in high-energy helium and hydrogen ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) At the scale of individual atoms, materials behave in ways that defy everyday intuition. Stretch a metal wire by a few micrometers and its resistance changes only slightly.
