Physicists have discovered a room-temperature transition between 1D and 2D electrical conduction states in the topological insulator bismuth iodide. A Rice University team and its collaborators have ...

Titanium dioxide (TiO2) is one of the most versatile oxides known with a wide range of applications from biomedical uses, to paints, to electronics and many more. When processed at the nanoparticle ...

Physicists propose a new vantage point to observe quantum fractionalization. Rice University physicists Matthew Foster and Seth Davis want to view a vexing quantum puzzle from an entirely new ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Purdue University engineers have developed a patent-pending method to synthesize high-quality, layered perovskite nanowires with large aspect ratios and tunable ...

Physics and Python stuff. Most of the videos here are either adapted from class lectures or solving physics problems. I really like to use numerical calculations without all the fancy programming ...

Unexpected motion: disorder mixes excited states, which allows transport to occur. (Courtesy: iStock_piranka) Under the right conditions, the transport of electrical charges through wires with ...

Pictures of DNA often look very tidy—the strands of the double helix neatly wind around each other, making it seem like studying genetics should be relatively straightforward. In truth, these strands ...

Available to watch now, IOP Publishing’s journal, 2D Materials, sponsored by Paragraf, explores insights and perspectives on the current status, challenges and future directions of 2D materials ...
