Whether bismuth is part of a class of materials highly suitable for quantum computing and spintronics was a long-standing issue. Research has now revealed that the true nature of bismuth was masked by ...

Quantum Dot Spintronics represents a cutting-edge convergence of quantum engineering and spin-dependent electronic phenomena. In these systems, semiconductor quantum dots act as nanoscale traps for ...

Artist’s impression of the quantum spin Hall effect in a graphene-based spintronic device, integrated in a chip. The blue and red spheres are spin-up and spin-down electrons traveling along the edge ...

Scientists from TU Delft (The Netherlands) have observed quantum spin currents in graphene for the first time without using magnetic fields. These currents are vital for spintronics, a faster and more ...

Researchers from the University of Cambridge and the Eindhoven University of Technology have developed an organic semiconductor that causes electrons to move in a spiral pattern. This semiconductor ...

A long standing mystery in spintronics has revolved around why some promising crystalline materials stubbornly refuse to conduct electricity the way theory predicts. That puzzle, rooted in how ...

Researchers at Harvard have created a groundbreaking metasurface that can replace bulky and complex optical components used in quantum computing with a single, ultra-thin, nanostructured layer. This ...

Kobe University quantum solid state physicist FUSEYA Yuki proved that the surface of bismuth masks the fact that the bulk material is not “topological,” a property valuable for a material’s use in ...
