MIT engineers develop a magnetic transistor for more energy-efficient electronics

Transistors, the building blocks of modern electronics, are typically made of silicon. Because it’s a semiconductor, this material can control the flow of electricity in a circuit. But silicon has fundamental physical limits that restrict how compact and energy-efficient a transistor can be.MIT researchers have now replaced silicon with a magnetic semiconductor, creating a magnetic transistor that could enable smaller, faster, and more energy-efficient circuits. The material’s magnetism strongly

Artificial IntelligenceIn This Manhattan Lab, AI Designs Materials From ScratchAdele Peters | Fast Company“The lab uses standard materials science equipment, but it’s almost all automated and run by AI; if it has a new idea at 4am, it starts running again. It can run as many as 50 experiments in a day, and the team is aiming to increase that to 100 experiments a day by the end of the summer. A human materials scientist, Krause says, might do 50 experiments in a year.”BiotechnologyOne

New 3D silicon chip breakthrough could extend Moore’s Law for years

As traditional chip miniaturization slows, researchers have found a way to pack more computing power into the same space by stacking silicon circuits in multiple layers. The new process uses ultra-thin silicon membranes and low-temperature manufacturing techniques to overcome a major obstacle that has long blocked the production of true 3D chips.

This strange new phase of matter could transform quantum technology

By stacking custom-designed silver nanoparticles like nanoscale LEGO bricks, scientists stabilized a mysterious crystal phase that had never been observed before. The material not only solves a longstanding puzzle in materials science but also exhibits promising quantum properties at room temperature.

Stanford quantum computing breakthrough uses twisted light to work without extreme cooling

A new room-temperature quantum device uses twisted light to entangle photons and electrons, overcoming one of the biggest hurdles in quantum technology. The breakthrough could pave the way for smaller, cheaper quantum systems with applications ranging from secure communications to future AI and computing platforms.

Show HN: Stillis – An open-ended anonymous polling platform for anything

I was sitting in an auditorium where the speaker was taking questions that were submitted through an app, it got me thinking that there's got to be a better way for an audience to communicate with the speakers than individual submissions.Even in online spaces, while there tends to be only a limited number of speakers, I would imagine a lot of people listening in tend to have shared concerns that aren't possible for them to express, and a chat box or comment section wouldn't change

Sodium Is Cheap, Abundant, and Now Powering Batteries That Could Rival Lithium

Sodium-ion batteries are rapidly gaining on lithium in consistency and fast charging. As demand for electric vehicles and grid storage surges, battery makers are searching for alternatives to lithium that are cheaper and easier to source. New research suggests sodium-ion batteries, which have long been heralded as a promising alternative, may be maturing faster than expected.Lithium-ion batteries dominate the market thanks to their excellent energy density and well-developed supply chains. But l

Diamond quantum sensor could reveal elusive altermagnets

For nearly a century, there were two known kinds of magnets. Ferromagnets are the classic magnets that attract metal and keep pictures stuck to the refrigerator. Antiferromagnets hide their magnetism at the atomic scale but are increasingly prized for their technological potential. A third category discovered within the last decade may combine the best qualities of both. Dubbed altermagnets, they could someday help create faster, more energy-efficient electronics.

Key Chemistry Question Answered, No Quantum Computer Required

What Garnet Chan cares most about is basic science. He entered chemistry decades ago to understand some of the most consequential biochemical processes on Earth. But since then, he’s become a central figure in a different arena: the debate over whether quantum computers will have a decisive advantage over ordinary “classical” ones. Over the past decade, many quantum computing researchers have…Source

Astronomers finally solve Saturn’s decades-long spin mystery

A decades-old mystery about Saturn has finally been solved thanks to the James Webb Space Telescope. Scientists discovered that Saturn’s changing “rotation rate” was never caused by the planet speeding up or slowing down, but by powerful winds high in its atmosphere. Webb’s unprecedented observations revealed that Saturn’s northern lights actively heat the atmosphere, creating winds that generate electrical currents, which then power the aurora all over again in a self-sustaining cycle.

'Shoot for the moon?' Aim a bit lower, researchers say

How ambitious should you be? Folk wisdom offers conflicting advice: "Shoot for the moon," but also, "Don't let the perfect be the enemy of the good." A new study by researchers at the University of Wyoming, Stanford University and the University of Colorado-Boulder used a mathematical model to show that ambition lies in the middle—above average but finite.
