Electrons Could Hold the Future of Computer Chips
Scientists suspect that the secrets to creating the next generation of computer chips lies in the movements of electrons.
MIT Engineer Achieves Zero Resistance Edge State in Circuit
Researchers led by MIT postdoc Cui-Zu Chang has achieved the first zero-resistance edge state in a circuit. The circuit exhibits the quantum anomalous Hall effect, a property that allows it to transfer information. Superconductors have also achieved zero resistance, but they can only transfer electrical information.
