Scientists from the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay have found a way to use light to control and read tiny quantum ...

A new microscopy technique allows scientists to see single-atom-thick boron nitride by making it glow under infrared light.

Austrian scientists have achieved a breakthrough by embedding individual platinum atoms into an ultrathin material and pinpointing their positions within the lattice with atomic precision for the ...

(Nanowerk News) Silicon-based electronics are approaching their physical limitations and new materials are needed to keep up with current technological demands. Two-dimensional (2D) materials have a ...

In recent years, heat has stopped being just a number on a thermometer and has become something we can literally see at the atomic scale. In 2025, an ...

Two-dimensional (2D) materials were once regarded as important candidates for extending semiconductor scaling. Because they ...

Scientists have discovered that a "single atomic defect" in a layered 2D material can hold onto quantum information for microseconds at room temperature, underscoring the potential of 2D materials in ...

Twist a stack of atom-thin carbon sheets by just the right amount and the material stops behaving like ordinary metal or insulator. Instead, it starts acting like a peculiar kind of superconductor ...

Memory Explainer: This is why memory and storage is so expensive (of course it's AI) and why PC gaming hardware prices are only going to keep rising, even probably for GPUs Hardware Securities firm ...

Researchers have developed a way to visualise boron nitride layers that are one atom thick. These ultrathin sheets are ...

Annular dark field scanning electron microscopy images of a bilayer interface after heat pulses at 500° (left), 600° (middle) and 700° (right). Dashed colored lines mark the positions of the interface ...
