Over the past decades, energy engineers have developed increasingly advanced battery technologies that can store more energy, charge faster and maintain their performance for longer. In recent years, ...

In many quantum materials—materials with unusual electrical and magnetic properties driven by quantum mechanical effects—electrons can organize themselves into Landau levels. Landau levels are ...

Spintronics—a technology that harnesses the electron's magnetic quantum states to carry information—could pave the way for a new generation of ultra-energy-efficient electronics. Yet a major challenge ...

At temperatures approaching absolute zero, most magnetic materials settle into tidy patterns. Their tiny magnetic moments, or ...

According to a new theory, our universe developed from a “pre-inflationary multiverse” made of particles in quantum superposition.

A research team at the University of Genova has developed the spin quantum battery, an energy storage system that uses the spin degrees of freedom of particles. The battery utilizes the spin ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. For years, physicists have been trying to design clocks that can measure tiny durations of time with extreme precision. Quantum ...

The vacuum of space is a chaotic sea of quantum fluctuations. Some have said that this vacuum energy can be harvested to build our future starship engines. It can't. But it is technically possible to ...
