Researchers find unexpected excitations in a kagome layered material
Researchers from the U.S. Department of Energy Ames National Laboratory have discovered an unexpected chiral excitation in the kagome layered topological magnet TbMn6Sn6. This chiral excitation can be viewed as a localized magnetic swirl or vortex. T.....»»
Report: Cheaper ‘Apple Vision’ headset could require a tethered iPhone or Mac
Earlier this week, a report suggested that Apple has shifted its focus from developing a next-generation Vision Pro to a lower-cost version of the headset instead. A new report today sheds more light on the Apple Vision product roadmap, with some det.....»»
Enhancing the performance of proton exchange membrane water electrolysis by constructing electron/proton pathways
The proton exchange membrane electrolysis of water (PEMWE) is a critical process for hydrogen generation. However, the limited ability of electrons and protons to permeate the membrane and the inefficient arrangement of the transport structure in the.....»»
