However, in amorphous solids, the lack of long-range order makes detecting defect-like regions far more challenging. While several approaches have been proposed to identify soft, defect-like regions ...
A team of researchers led by the U.S. Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) developed ...
The performance of many next-generation devices depends on controlling how energy flows at extremely small scales. In the field of microelectronics—where devices continue to shrink and new materials ...
Atomically resolved imaging and quantum simulations show how defect type and density can stabilize, disorder, or melt electron Wigner solids in 2D semiconductors, with implications for future ...
The tool could help researchers design denser optical memory, study information loss in quantum systems and better understand how materials behave. Researchers at Argonne and the University of Chicago ...
Aug. 3, 2026 — The performance of many next-generation devices depends on controlling how energy flows at extremely small scales. In the field of microelectronics — where devices continue to shrink ...
