A research group has discovered significant nonreciprocal optical absorption of LiNiPO4, referred to as the optical diode effect, in which divalent nickel (Ni2+) ions are responsible for magnetism, by ...
Scientists have reviewed the superconducting diode effect, a quantum effect enabling dissipationless supercurrent to flow in only one direction. The SDE provides new functionalities for ...
P-n diodes are two-terminal devices that consist of two types of semiconductor materials (i.e., a p-type and an n-type ...
Every time a smartphone snaps a photo, millions of tiny light detectors capture the scene and then ferry all that raw data ...
In an optical diode, the light input in one direction is transmitted while the light input in the opposite direction is blocked. The new optical diode is made from parity-time (PT) symmetric ...
a. Schematic of a photon-controlled diode fabricated by sandwiching a h-BN layer between a n/n− MoS2 junction and a SiO2/p+-Si back-gate, using bottom/top graphene as cathode/anode and a top h-BN as ...
In 3-D printing, residual stress can build up in parts during the printing process due to the expansion of heated material and contraction of cold material, generating forces that can distort the part ...
For the first time, researchers in China have demonstrated a high-temperature superconducting diode effect, which allows a supercurrent to flow in both directions. Published in Nature Physics, the ...
From X-ray imaging to UV lasers, new chip research highlights the need for precision operations, technician pipelines, and ...
