New York, NY--May 25, 2015--Under the direction of Latha Venkataraman, associate professor of applied physics at Columbia Engineering, researchers have designed a new technique to create a ...

When circular polarized light is irradiated onto a thallium lead alloy, the majority “up spins” of electrons flow in the right direction (spin-polarized current). Researchers Ibuki Taniuchi, Ryota ...

What would happen if you combined the unparalleled efficiency of a superconductor with the flexibility and controllability of a semiconductor? Thanks to a new breakthrough in quantum materials, we may ...

Researchers have demonstrated that the direction of the spin-polarized current can be restricted to only one direction in a single-atom layer of a thallium-lead alloys when irradiated at room ...
