Multiferroics are materials that exhibit more than one prominent "ferroic" property, such as ferromagnetism and ...
Researchers have developed a molecularly engineered interlayer that tackles one of the biggest barriers ...
A molecularly engineered interface finally overcome a major barrier preventing high energy lithium sulphur batteries from ...
Interlayer excitons in transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures exhibit fascinating physics and hold great promise for developing excitonic devices. Scientists in ...
Excitons, bound states between an electron (i.e., a negatively charged particle) and a hole (i.e., the absence of an electron) in materials, are a key focus of condensed matter physics studies. These ...
Scientists have demonstrated for the first time that interlayer coupling in a van der Waals (vdW) material can be largely modulated by a protonic gate, 'injecting' protons into the device. The same ...
This, and six other questions about a recent first in physics, answered. A UT-led team observed an interlayer skyrmion—a swirling pattern of electric dipoles in an ultrathin material—for the first ...
Lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries combine the abundance and affordability of sulfur with an energy storage capability far beyond that of current lithium-ion technologies. Practical deployment, however, ...
Three years ago, the City of Dubuque Engineering and River City Paving (RCP) ventured forth to try a new construction method on busy Central Ave., an arterial street in downtown Dubuque, IA. Faced ...
