A new study suggests that crystal defects in diamond may hold the key to scalable quantum interconnects. Connecting large ...

Building large-scale quantum technologies requires reliable ways to connect individual quantum bits (qubits) without ...

Scientists at Nagoya University in Japan harnessed the power of artificial intelligence to unveil a novel approach to comprehend small defects known as dislocations in polycrystalline materials.

Understanding how dislocations (line defects in the crystal structure) occur when 3D-printing metals has been unclear to materials scientists. Understanding when and how dislocations form in ...

A shock wave traveling through a material can create defects known as dislocations – tiny shifts in the material’s crystal that propagate through it, leaving what are known as stacking faults behind.

Inside the Findings That Shaped Materials Science takes a closer look at some of those turning points - the ideas, lab ...
