For more than a century, scientists have relied on separate tools to measure the three core building blocks of electricity: volts, ohms, and amps. Each describes a different piece of how electricity ...

A Hiroshima University team has designed a feasible way to detect the Unruh effect, where acceleration turns quantum vacuum ...

The findings resolve a long-standing problem in fundamental physics. Scientists at Hiroshima University have created a ...

Bright idea: Harry Atwater is working on a plasmonic solar cell A new way of creating a voltage by shining light on a solid has been developed by researchers in the US and Europe. Unlike most ...

A team of researchers in France has found that applying a voltage across a 100-nm-thick cylindrical soap film causes the fluid inside it to flow upwards. If the voltage is increased, the film thickens ...

For the first time, scientists fabricate multi-layer, reconfigurable batteries that can bend, adapt, and tune their own ...
