At the Edge of Graphene-Based Electronics
Researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology have developed a new graphene-based nanoelectronics platform that could be the key to finding a successor to silicon. The team may have also discovered a new quasiparticle. Their discovery could lead to manufacturing smaller, faster, more efficient, and more sustainable computer chips, and has potential implications for quantum and high-performance computing.
Science snapshots from Berkeley Lab
New Berkeley Lab breakthroughs: engineering chemical-producing microbes; watching enzyme reactions in real time; capturing the first image of ‘electron ice’; revealing how skyrmions really move
Two Berkeley Lab Scientists Honored with the Lawrence Award
The Department of Energy has announced that Susannah Tringe and Dan Kasen, two scientists at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab), will receive the Ernest Orlando Lawrence Award, one of DOE’s highest honors. Additionally, former Berkeley Lab scientist M. Zahid Hasan was also named as one of the eight recipients.
Scientists Discover a New Magnetic Quasiparticle
Scientists explore materials’ magnetism by studying the oscillations of magnetic effects, or “magnons.” They have long predicted that magnons can interact and combine to form new quasiparticles. Scientists have now used neutron scattering to find these multiple-magnon “bound states” in real materials.
