Researchers have found a new way to improve current laser design – by levelling up photonic-crystal surface-emitting lasers ...

A meteorite-born mineral with both crystal and glass traits has defied the known rules of heat conduction. Its constant heat ...

A strange mineral found in a meteorite does not behave like anything on Earth — and when it's heated, it acts even weirder.

A meteorite that crashed in Germany almost 300 years ago is now helping scientists change how we understand heat. Carved from a meteorite that landed in Steinbach in 1724, a rare sample of silica, ...

The first transistor, invented at Bell Labs in 1947, was a handmade device about half an inch tall—enormous by today’s ...

AI is transforming space science—revealing Martian water, decoding meteorites, and improving thermal materials for industrial efficiency.

Researchers led by Genki Kobayashi at the RIKEN Pioneering Research Institute (PRI) in Japan have discovered a way to max out ...

A team of scientists from Korea and Japan has discovered a new type of crystal that can "breathe"—releasing and absorbing ...
