A graphene-based Josephson junction incorporated in a superconducting circuit forms a voltage-tunable transmon qubit that can be controlled coherently.
Electrical damage of insulating polypropylene can be healed by heating surface-functionalized iron oxide nanoparticles dispersed in the polymer with oscillating magnetic fields, which activates nanoparticle diffusion and local melting of the damaged regions.
This Review highlights the fundamental advantages of nanolasers and the engineering challenges for their utilization in several practical applications.
The long-range magnetic order in an artificial crystal that exhibits emergent ferrotoroidicity on the mesoscale can be manipulated by an effective magnetic vortex field that is generated by a scanning process with a magnetic tip.
A gel with therapeutic nanoformulation that can be sprayed at the tumour resection site after surgery activates immune response in the tissue microenviroment, inhibiting tumour recurrence and potential metastasis.
Recent progress on generating electricity from the direct interaction of carbon nanostructures with flowing, waving, dropping and evaporating water is summarized.
A nanotweezer system based on dielectrophoresis can trap, manipulate and extract biomolecules and organelles in living cells at physiological conditions with high spatiotemporal resolution and minimal invasiveness.
