The figure shows the spin and lattice structure of thulium orthoferrite (TmFeO?) on the left and the T-ray-induced transitions between the energy levels of thulium ions (Tm³?), which trigger coherent spin dynamics (memory switching), on the right.Credit: MIPT Press...
Researchers from RMIT University in Melbourne, Australia have demonstrated for the first time a working rechargeable "proton battery" that could re-wire how we power our homes, vehicles and devices. The rechargeable battery is environmentally friendly, and has the potential, with further development,...

It's a safe bet that some of the websites and apps you use collect and subsequently sell your personal data. But how can you know which ones? An EPFL researcher has led the development of a program that can...
Stanford researchers led by postdoc Nariman Farsad have built a machine that sends text messages using common chemicals.Image: Standford University Researchers have built a machine that sends messages using common chemicals. Among many potential applications, this system could relay secret...
