The search for materials that can conduct electricity at room temperature without losing energy is one of the greatest and most consequential challenges of modern physics: loss-free power transmission ...

It’s a problem most of us can relate to. You’re trying to get to bed, but your room is too hot to sleep. No matter what you do, your room is still warmer than the rest of the house. Or perhaps you ...

A new type of computer uses oscillators in special materials to find the most efficient solutions to complex scheduling and routing problems at room temperature. (Nanowerk News) A line of engineering ...

After a raucous year of supposed breakthroughs in superconducting physics, 2023 is looking like it’s going to end with a whimper. This summer, LK-99 was the room-temperature superconductor du jour.

EDITOR’S NOTE: The paper this report was based on has been retracted because eight of its 11 authors no longer have confidence in the data it contained. On Wednesday, a paper was released by Nature ...
