Qubits can be made by floating a suspended electron over a pool of liquid helium rather than being embedded them a solid-state crystal — which leads to impurities and errors.

Scientists want to replace electrons with so-called 'nanobubbles' — or skyrmions — to store data more densely and efficiently in advanced memory components that would replace RAM and flash storage.

Intel's Hala Point neuromorphic computer is powered by more than 1,000 new AI chips and performs 50 times faster than equivalent conventional computing systems.

Boston Dynamics replaces its flagship humanoid robot after 10 years with a completely new machine that looks like the Pixar lamp with a mechanical humanoid body.

Researchers have found an elemental physical interaction between light and magnetism that might lead to the next generation of computing memory.

Using pulse current charging, or a constant current divided with a few short breaks, lithium-ion batteries hold up better over hundreds of charging cycles and can last twice as long.

This camera can generate clips of breathtakingly quick processes — and could help scientists create ultrafast magnetic memory and pioneering ultrasonic medical treatments.
