By taking two flakes of 2D material and twisting them together, researchers can access unusual properties that could be used to improve quantum computers.

Quantum physicists have created a new phase of matter inside a diamond. Their new "time quasicrystal" is special as it is crystallized in four dimensions: the three physical dimensions, plus time.

A new study demonstrates a potential protein misfolding mechanism that could solve a decades-old mystery of why some proteins refold in a different pattern than expected.

Researchers from the Institute of Science Tokyo have developed CeSPIACE, a peptide inhibitor that blocks SARS-CoV-2 from binding to host cell receptors. Unlike some existing treatments, CeSPIACE works against many variants.

New research provides key insights into the structure and function of PINK1, a protein linked to Parkinson's disease.

New research shows that flame retardant polymers can break down into toxic chemicals, raising concerns about their environmental and health impacts.

By implementing multi-walled carbon nanotube structures on the surface of battery electrode materials, scientists can absorb some of the unwanted strain and wear that contributes to battery degradation.

Researchers have developed a new method for recycling spent battery materials that can extract 99.99% of the lithium from used cathodes. The method is pH neutral and uses significantly less energy than other techniques.

A new analysis of the thermal stability of high-nickel cathodes for electric vehicle batteries suggests that nickel could provide longer driving ranges between charges.

Researchers have developed a new material that can transmit clear signals during spinal cord injury monitoring, yet remains flexible as the patient moves around.
