This tiny chip could change the future of quantum computing

Researchers have achieved a significant step forward in quantum computing by developing a device that is almost 100 times thinner than the width of a human hair. The work, published in the journal Nature Communications, introduces a new type of optical phase modulator designed to precisely control laser light. This…

This strange magnetism could power tomorrow’s AI

An international research team from NIMS, The University of Tokyo, Kyoto Institute of Technology, and Tohoku University has shown that ultra-thin films of ruthenium dioxide (RuO2) display altermagnetism. This property defines what scientists now recognize as a third fundamental category of magnetic materials. Altermagnets are drawing growing interest because they…

A surprising brain cleanup reduced epileptic seizures and restored memory

Temporal lobe epilepsy causes repeated seizures and often interferes with memory and thinking. New research now suggests that this condition is also tied to early aging in certain brain cells. Scientists at Georgetown University Medical Center report that eliminating these aging cells in mice led to fewer seizures, better memory,…
