Nobel Prize winners showcase quantum tunnelling in macroscopic circuits, paving the way for quantum computing.

John Clarke, Michel H. Devoret, and John M. Martinis won the 2025 Nobel Prize in Physics for demonstrating\u00A0macroscopic ...

After a year of trial and error, Liyang Chen had managed to whittle down a metallic wire into a microscopic strand half the width of an E.coli bacterium — just thin enough to allow a trickle of ...

Which way does electricity flow through a vehicle’s electrical system? From positive to negative, or from negative to positive? Depending on your viewpoint, it can flow either way. When most people ...

On Tuesday the field of quantum mechanics received a thoughtful 100th-birthday present from the Royal Swedish Academy of ...

Making electrons flow like a liquid is difficult, but inside graphene researchers forced them to move so fast that they ...

Researchers have experimentally caused electrons to bend in bilayer graphene with the use of light. The way electrons flow in materials determine its electronic properties. For example, when a voltage ...

Physicists used to think that superconductivity -- electricity flowing without resistance or loss -- was an all or nothing phenomenon. But new evidence suggests that, at least in copper oxide ...

Electrons flow through most materials more like a gas than a fluid, meaning they don’t interact much with one another. It was long hypothesized that electrons could flow like a fluid, but only recent ...

Nobel Prize winners show how superconducting circuits can exhibit quantum behavior, leading to transformative technologies.
