Unveiling Quantum Friction: Water and Graphene’s Extraordinary Interaction

In a groundbreaking revelation, scientists have discovered an extraordinary phenomenon called quantum friction that governs the flow of water on a surface of carbon atoms, known as graphene. This extraordinary behavior, which was previously only a theoretical prediction, has now been experimentally demonstrated by an...

In a sea of magic angles, ‘twistons’ keep electrons flowing through three layers of graphene

In the quantum materials community, the discovery of superconductivity in two ever-so-slightly twisted layers of graphene made waves a few years ago. Scientists had discovered a simple device to study the resistance-free flow of electricity, with just two atom-thin sheets of carbon. The angle...

Researchers reveals basics of industrial catalytic processes

Catalysts speed up chemical reactions with the aim of minimizing energy usage. They are critically important. Catalysts have also been developed through trial and error rather than through scientific principles. Washington State University and University of Science and Technology of China scientists together have revealed an underlying mechanism...
