The first observation of amplified spontaneous emission from electron-hole plasma in 2D semiconductors
Amplified spontaneous emission is a physical phenomenon that entails the amplification of the light spontaneously emitted by excited particles, due to photons of the same frequency triggering...
Boosting the response speed of quantum LEDs via an excitation memory effect
Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) are widely used electroluminescent devices that emit light in response to an applied electric voltage. These devices are central components of various electronic and...
An evolving robotics encyclopedia characterizes robots based on their performance
Over the past decades, roboticists have introduced a wide range of systems with distinct body structures and varying capabilities. As the number of developed robots continuously grows, being able to...
Study uncovers developmentally distinct neural architectures controlling avoidant behaviors
Over the course of their lives, humans and other animals typically learn to avoid situations and stimuli that are dangerous or are perceived as threatening. Past neuroscience studies have gathered...
Quantum entanglement wins: Researchers report quantum advantage in a simple cooperation game
Quantum systems hold the promise of tackling some complex problems faster and more efficiently than classical computers. Despite their potential, so far only a limited number of studies have...
Heat-based stabilization of a conductive polymer simplifies bioelectronics fabrication
Recent advances in the field of materials science have opened new possibilities for the fabrication of bioelectronics, devices designed to be worn or implanted in the human body. Bioelectronics can...
Errors in attention adaptively impact spatial working memory, study finds
Humans are known to rapidly adapt their mental processes and behavior based on feedback they receive from the world around them. For instance, some past studies have shown that people progressively...
Physicists uncover two superconducting regimes in a Kagome lattice superconductor
Superconductivity, which entails an electrical resistance of zero at very low temperatures, is a highly desirable and thus widely studied quantum phenomenon. Typically, this state is known to arise...
A premotor cortical network in the brain allows people to voluntarily stop speaking, study suggests
Speech is a unique human ability that is known to be supported by various motor and cognitive processes. When humans start speaking, they can decide to cease at any point; for instance, if they are...
A new protocol to image wave functions in continuous space
In recent years, physicists have been trying to better understand the behavior of individual quantum particles as they move in space. Yet directly imaging these particles with high precision has so...
