In an article published in the journal Nature on Thursday, the researchers said that compared to their bulkier counterparts, their ultra-thin metal sheets – especially one-atom-thick bismuth – showed ...

An curved arrow pointing right. You definitely shouldn't mess around with mercury, but if you want a safe, similar, tactile experience, a metal called Gallium is widely available online.

(Bloomberg) -- Two obscure yet crucial metals, gallium and germanium, are the latest pawns in the escalating US-China trade war. On Dec. 3, China announced an export ban on both metals to the US ...

The method can be applied to any metal with a low melting point, and the team has used it to make 2D sheets of bismuth, gallium, indium, lead and tin. The feat was reported today in Nature 1.

According to a report in Nature(via Interesting Engineering), researchers from the Chinese Academy of Physics can create super-thin sheets, just one or two atoms thick, out of materials including ...

The most optimal material for solid-state lasers in photonics is gallium-arsenide (GaAs), but due to the misalignment of the crystal lattice between the compound (group III-V) semiconductor and ...

Now, nuclear spins around a gallium arsenide quantum dot have been used as a many-body quantum memory register. A noise-tolerant LiDAR approaching the standard quantum-limited precision through ...

This publication provides a comprehensive overview of the technologies involved in the direct production of gallium-68. It serves as a specific guide for the production and quality control of metal ...
