Scientists have observed electrons in graphene flowing like a nearly frictionless liquid, revealing an unusual quantum state that challenges long-standing assumptions in physics and could enable future technologies. Physicists have long sought evidence that electrons can behave collectively as a smooth fluid governed by universal quantum properties, but such behavior is difficult to detect because […]
Researchers at the University of Rochester have developed an artificial intelligence-based method that uses large language models, similar to ChatGPT, to help chemical engineers discover and manufacture new materials, potentially accelerating efforts such as converting carbon dioxide into fuel. The approach allows researchers to describe desired materials in natural language, receive AI-generated recommendations for experimental […]
