Binding of multidentate ligands to the surface of lead halide #perovskite #nanocrystals suppresses the formation of surface defects that result in halide segregation, yielding materials with efficient and color-stable red #emission.
#Claytronics is the product of the convergence of #nanotechnology and #information_technology. Such materials would be composed of #catoms which would be the smallest indivisible units of the #programmable_matter.
Researchers used #aerolysin mutants to systematically design #nanopores for reading out signals of their informational polymers. These aerolysin nanopores can be used for #decoding binary information.
As part of a $218 million investment in the emerging field of #quantum_information science (QIS), the #DOE Office of Basic Energy Sciences announced seven awards totaling $30 million over three years to develop QIS infrastructure and research.
Logic and memory devices that use #nanomagnetic mechanisms to store and manipulate information, require no #energy to maintain their magnetic state.
The United States new law, called the National Quantum Initiative Act, allocates up to $1.2 billion in funding to keep American #quantum_information_science competitive on the global scale.
The high stability and easy #manipulation of #Skyrmions could revolutionize energy-efficient information technologies including #memory and #logic_devices.
