In this video, we explore the voltage output generated by an alternator when powered by a waterjet. It's an engaging science ...

Bright idea: Harry Atwater is working on a plasmonic solar cell A new way of creating a voltage by shining light on a solid has been developed by researchers in the US and Europe. Unlike most ...

Check out these two pictures from the bumper car ride at the fair. Now look at this picture showing where the roof supports meet the roof. See that rubber spacer in there? I don't know all the ...

John Clarke, Michel H. Devoret, and John Martinis built an electrical circuit-based oscillator on a microchip.

A new transistor with an atomically thin current-carrying channel that operates at ultralow supply voltages has been unveiled by a team of researchers in the US. The new device, which is made from a ...

In the 1980s, John Clarke, Michel Devoret and John Martinis demonstrated quantum effects in an electric circuit, an advance that underlies today’s quantum computers.
