Researchers at Barcelona-based photonics research institute ICFO have enhanced the performance of an organic solar cell by optimizing the fluorescence quantum yield (FQY) – that is, by favoring light ...

You’ve heard of laid-off workers training their lower-paid replacements. Now imagine that the replacement worker is a robot. Something like that is going on in Watertown, at a company called Tutor ...

Last spring, 555 students enrolled in CHEM 0350: “Organic Chemistry I.” But during pre-registration this fall, prospective students were met with a new course cap: Only 410 students were able to ...

Organic foods are produced without pesticides, synthetic fertilizers, or genetically modified ingredients. Some studies suggest that organic diets may lower the risk of obesity, diabetes, and some ...

In the 1960s, a group of physicists and historians began a massive project meant to catalogue and record the history of quantum physics. It was called Sources for History of Quantum Physics (SHQP). As ...

A century ago, the strange behavior of atoms and elementary particles led physicists to formulate a new theory of nature. That theory, quantum mechanics, found immediate success, proving its worth ...

Tutor Perini (TPC) ended the recent trading session at $62.26, demonstrating a +2.72% change from the preceding day's closing price. The stock outpaced the S&P 500's daily gain of 1.56%. On the other ...

Researchers have developed a chip-based quantum random number generator that provides high-speed, high-quality operation on a miniaturized platform. This advance could help move quantum random number ...
