Quantum engineers have spent years trying to tame the fragility of qubits, only to be thwarted by the tiniest imperfections in the materials they use. Now a new line of research flips that problem on ...

Machine learning (ML) has emerged as a powerful tool for studying the properties of condensed matter. To date, most research has focused on the bulk properties of solids, however, defects are ...

A new hybrid layered perovskite featuring elusive spontaneous defect ordering has been found, report scientists. By introducing specific concentrations of thiocyanate ions into FAPbI3 (FA = ...

A team at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) has developed a solid-state battery electrolyte that conducts lithium ions roughly 2.7 times faster than its undoped ...
