Research Group of Ryuichi Shindou proposed dissipationless conversion between magnetic spin and electric charge in emergent superfluid in 2D materials

A research group led by Ryuichi Shindou proposes a new phenomenon where magnetic spin and electric charge are converted without energy loss in emergent superfluids of 2D materials. This conversion is made possible by exciton condensates, which exhibit dissipationless supercurrent flows.

Green information technologies: Superconductivity meets spintronics

Researchers have created a material system exhibiting unusually long-range Josephson effect, enabling macroscopic quantum coherence and potential for spintronic applications. The discovery of 'triplet' superconductivity, where electrons with the same spin circulate, expands possibilities for low-power consumption devices.

UK takes the lead in redefining the kilogram

New research by National Physical Laboratory produces technology for accurate measurements of Planck's constant, a fundamental constant that relates frequency to energy. The technique enables the kilogram to be redefined in terms of this constant, providing a universal standard and greater long-term certainty for scientists.
