Headline: Resurrecting niobium for quantum science

■ Release Date: 2024.2.26

■ Published by: DOE/Argonne National Laboratory

■ Keywords: niobium, qubits, quantum

■ Abstract:

Niobium has long been considered an underperformer in superconducting qubits. Scientists have now engineered a high-quality niobium-based qubit, taking advantage of niobium's superior qualities.

Headline: Black carbon sensor could fill massive monitoring gaps

■ Release Date: 2024.2.26

■ Published by: University of Utah

■ Keywords: black carbon, sensor, pollution

■ Abstract:

Black carbon is up to 25 times more hazardous to human health than other airborne particles of a similar size. Standard sensors are expensive and burdensome, resulting in sparse coverage in regions infamous for poor air quality, such as the greater Salt Lake City area. A University of Utah-led study found that a portable, more affordable sensor recorded black carbon concentrations as accurately as the most widely used instrument for monitoring black carbon in real time. The portable sensor could help expand an accurate observation network to establish disease risk and create effective public health policies.

Headline: New world record for CIGS solar cells

■ Release Date: 2024.2.26

■ Published by: Uppsala University

■ Keywords: solar cells, sodium, indium

■ Abstract:

A new record for electrical energy generation from CIGS solar cells has been reached. Scientists have achieved a 23.64 percent efficiency.

Headline: Laser-focused look at spinning electrons shatters world record for precision

■ Release Date: 2024.2.26

■ Published by: DOE/Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility

■ Keywords: lead, calcium, electron beam

■ Abstract:

Nuclear physicists have shattered a nearly 30-year-old record for precision in electron beam polarimetry. The groundbreaking result sets the stage for high-profile experiments that could open the door to new physics discoveries.

Headline: EU countries have seen a decade of progress towards their 2030 sustainable energy goal

■ Release Date: 2024.2.28

■ Published by: PLOS

■ Keywords: sustainable energy, clean energy, renewable

■ Abstract:

Countries in the European Union (EU) have made progress over the past decade toward Sustainable Development Goal 7 (SDG 7), which calls for 'access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all' by 2030, according to a new study.

Headline: New microwave photonics chip for high-speed signal processing

■ Release Date: 2024.2.29

■ Published by: City University of Hong Kong

■ Keywords: lithium niobate, silicon, chip

■ Abstract:

Researchers have developed a microwave photonic chip that is capable of performing ultrafast analog electronic signal processing and computation using optics.
