The realization of active microscale Marangoni surfers
Marangoni surfers are small particles that self-propel while straddling a fluid-fluid interface in a way similar to that in which a surfer moves on the surface of a wave. In recent years,...
A new strategy to implement a high-fidelity mixed-species entangling gate
In recent years, research teams worldwide have been trying to create trapped ion quantum computers, which have so far proved to be among the most promising systems for practical quantum computing...
A three-agent robotic system for Mars exploration
Mars, also known as the red planet, has been the focus of numerous research studies, as some of its characteristics have sparked discussions about its possible inhabitability. The National...
PufferBot: A flying robot with an expandable body
Researchers at University of Colorado Boulder's ATLAS Institute and University of Calgary have recently developed an actuated, expandable structure that can be used to fabricate shape-changing...
The observation of Bloch ferromagnetism in composite fermions
Composite fermions are exotic quasi-particles found in interacting 2-D fermion systems at relatively large perpendicular magnetic fields. These quasi-particles, which are composed of an electron and...
Reviewing recent efforts to improve the reversibility of zinc anodes in rechargeable batteries
Rechargeable zinc metal batteries (RZMBs) could be a viable alternative to lithium ion batteries, which are currently used to power many types of electronic devices, as well as electric vehicles....
A new strategy for the viral manipulation of interneurons in mice and other mammals
A deep learning model achieves super-human performance at Gran Turismo Sport
Over the past few decades, research teams worldwide have developed machine learning and deep learning techniques that can achieve human-comparable performance on a variety of tasks. Some of these...
An operational amplifier fabricated using a 2-D semiconductor
Analog electronics are electronic systems that operate with currents and voltages that continuously change over time, rather than switching only between two levels, like digital electronics. Most...
The Hall effect links superconductivity and quantum criticality in a strange metal
Over the past few decades, researchers have identified a number of superconducting materials with atypical properties, known as unconventional superconductors. Many of these superconductors share...
