NIMS, in joint research with the University of Tokyo, AIST, the University of Osaka, and Tohoku University, have proposed a ...

A new battery technology has been developed that delivers significantly higher energy storage—enough to alleviate EV range ...

The discovery of graphene has motivated scientists to explore a wide range of layered, atomically-thin 2D materials. One of the most astounding discoveries was that such monoatomic layers could be ...

For nearly 20 years, physicists and engineers have chased the idea of invisibility. Early efforts focused on hiding objects from light using so-called metamaterials with extreme and often unrealistic ...

The recent discovery of magnetic materials that are also superconductors has reconciled two physical phenomena that were previously thought to be incompatible. Putting on the pressure The startling ...

A new finding demonstrates that the chemical element ruthenium (Ru) is the fourth single element to have unique magnetic properties at room temperature. The discovery could be used to improve sensors, ...
