In the future, quantum computers are anticipated to solve problems once thought unsolvable, from predicting the course of ...

The crystal structure of these atomically thin materials makes them extremely sensitive to mechanical strain – tiny stretches or compressions of the atomic lattice. In principle, this strain ...

The quantum physics of massive particles has intrigued physicists for more than 80 years, since it predicts that even complex particles can exhibit wave-like behaviour – in conflict with our everyday ...

An evaporating colloidal particle–laden droplet leaves behind a ring-like residue after drying. We routinely observe this ubiquitous phenomenon for dried coffee drops; thus, it is known as the "coffee ...
