Science & Technology
- With funding from the National Science Foundation, Juliet Gopinath will work to bring together engineers and physicists to design better tools for quantum computing.
- New research by Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder's Orit Peleg explores how clumps of hundreds of bees stay stable under strain.
- A square peg in a round hole? No problem. New material developed by Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder engineers can transform into complex, pre-programmed shapes via light and temperature stimuli, and back again.
- Physicists have developed an insulating gel that they say could coat the windows of habitats in space, allowing the settlers inside to trap and store energy from the sun.
- A microscopic trampoline could help engineers to overcome a major hurdle for quantum computers, researchers report.
- Researchers at Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder are exploring how wearable technologies can help people to experience nature as they hunt for fungi.
- A CIRES expert and NIST colleagues discover electroplated rhenium's unexpected superconductive characteristics.
- Researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology and Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder have developed a method for generating numbers guaranteed to be random by quantum mechanics.
- Electric vehicles may one day be able to recharge while driving down the highway, drawing wireless power directly from plates installed in the road.
- Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØresearchers exploring ways to use augmented reality and robotic technologies in conjunction with each other are finding valuable applications that enhance safety and boost efficiency.
