Pure mathematics uses mathematics to explore abstract ideas, mathematics that does not necessarily describe a real physical system. This can include developing the fundamental tools used by ...

Built using bismuth oxyselenide (Bi₂O₂Se), a high-mobility 2D material, the transistor operates at lower voltages and could enable ultra-dense chip designs with better performance per watt.

However, pure CBT ceramics exhibit poor piezoelectric performance due to the high strain energy in the pseudo-perovskite blocks between the bismuth layers limits spontaneous polarization (P s ...

The method can be applied to any metal with a low melting point, and the team has used it to make 2D sheets of bismuth, gallium, indium, lead and tin. The feat was reported today in Nature 1.

We all know that freezing is the process by which a liquid transforms into a solid, but believe it or not, a team of Italian scientists has managed to 'freeze' light. For the first time, they have ...

The country music superstar shared on “60 Minutes Australia” that he has struggled with purely obsessional obsessive-compulsive disorder, also known as Pure O, since the age of 12 but recently ...

A discovery by McGill University researchers that challenges conventional wisdom in physics suggests that bismuth, a metal, could serve as the foundation for highly stable electronic components.

In a study published in Nature Materials, scientists from the University of California, Irvine describe a new method to make very thin crystals of the element bismuth—a process that may aid the ...

Solid-electrolyte systems have also been explored to simplify system configurations, improve stability and enable the production of pure formic acid. These efforts reflect the commitment of the ...
