JILA researchers are pioneering a nuclear clock using thorium-229, which offers unprecedented stability compared to atomic ...

However, to build a precise clock, researchers must fully characterize how the transition responds to external conditions, ...

and the University of Montpellier have successfully synthesized wafer-scale hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) exhibiting an AA-stacking configuration, a crystal ...

Since the crystal lattices of the two layers are no ... two layers of hexagonal boron nitride (an artificially synthesized solid that is almost as hard as diamond) that are twisted by less than ...

Students continue exploring the particle nature of matter by first dissolving salt in water, then allowing the water to evaporate, and finally observing the solid salt left behind. After viewing a ...

“When the crystal absorbs sufficient energy ... “We found a way to integrate solid-state physics applied to radiation dosimetry with a research group that works strongly in quantum, although ...
