Phys.org / Molecule deposition on 2D materials promotes defect healing and quality restoration
Researchers from the Institute of Physics in Zagreb have shown that depositing a thin layer of organic molecules on two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors can improve their optical properties and even repair defects. Their work, ...
Tech Xplore / Google files to appeal decision in search monopoly case
Google filed a notice on Friday to appeal a federal judge's ruling that it held an illegal monopoly on online search, court records show.
Medical Xpress / Vascularized retinal organoids engineered with functional light-signal pathways
Until now, it has been difficult to maintain retinal ganglion cells deep inside organoids over extended periods. The supply of nutrients and oxygen in the densely packed tissues is limited, leading to cell death.
Phys.org / Atom-thin, content-addressable memory enables edge AI applications
Recent advances in the field of artificial intelligence (AI) have opened new exciting possibilities for the rapid analysis of data, the sourcing of information and the generation of use-specific content. To run AI models, ...
Phys.org / Do-it-yourself ammonia production: Renewable-powered system uses calcium to reduce emissions and scale for farmers
The last time you scrubbed a streaky window or polished a porcelain appliance, you probably used a chemical called ammonia.
Medical Xpress / Parenthood 'inoculates' adults against disgust, new study reveals
From diaper changes to nursing care, exposure to unpleasant substances is a daily reality for millions of people, but how does the brain adapt? New research from neuroscientists at the University of Bristol reveals that repeated, ...
Tech Xplore / YouTube relaxes monetization policy on videos with controversial content
YouTube is updating its guidelines for videos containing content that advertisers define as controversial, allowing more creators to earn full ad revenue when they tackle sensitive issues in a nongraphic way.
Phys.org / Efficient cooling method could enable chip-based quantum computers
Quantum computers could rapidly solve complex problems that would take the most powerful classical supercomputers decades to unravel. But they'll need to be large and stable enough to efficiently perform operations. To meet ...
Phys.org / How small mammals shrink their brains to survive the cold
An international team of researchers, with the involvement of the UAB, has conducted a study that explains the evolutionary origins of the Dehnel phenomenon, a unique seasonal adaptation in small mammals that involves the ...
Phys.org / Hidden magma oceans could shield rocky exoplanets from harmful radiation
Deep beneath the surface of distant exoplanets known as super-Earths, oceans of molten rock may be doing something extraordinary: powering magnetic fields strong enough to shield entire planets from dangerous cosmic radiation ...
Phys.org / Asteroseismology study probes properties of newly discovered pulsating white dwarf
Chinese astronomers have conducted an asteroseismology study of a newly discovered pulsating white dwarf designated WFST J053009.62+595557.0, or WFST J0530 for short. The new findings, presented January 2 on the arXiv pre-print ...
Phys.org / Tiny earthquakes reveal hidden faults under Northern California
By tracking swarms of very small earthquakes, seismologists are getting a new picture of the complex region where the San Andreas fault meets the Cascadia subduction zone, an area that could give rise to devastating major ...
