The unexpectedly large flexoelectric response in ferroelectric perovskite materials is now shown to be induced by macroscopic symmetry breaking in paraelectric phases.

Scientists identify the complex interplay of promoting and resisting factors that occurs between microscopic magnetic domains and macroscopic magnetic hysteresis using the feature extended ...

From nanometre-sized particles to larger surfaces, the physical and electrostatic properties of materials are key to understanding how they behave in real-world situations.  Among these ...

Observing macroscopic quantum effects in the dark How to make a nanoscale-sized glass bead show quantum effects at macroscopic scales Date: January 10, 2024 Source: University of Innsbruck Summary ...

In quantum physics, the creation of a state of entanglement in particles any larger and more complex than photons usually requires temperatures close to absolute zero and the application of ...

But for years, researchers from the University of Geneva (UNIGE), Switzerland, have been attempting to observe the properties of quantum physics on a larger scale, even macroscopic.

Macroscopic phenomena governed by microscopic physics Date: December 3, 2018 Source: Osaka University Summary: Researchers have observed a magnetic reconnection driven by electron dynamics in ...

EPFL scientists have successfully achieved a quantum collective behavior of macroscopic mechanical oscillators, unlocking new possibilities in quantum technology.

Entanglement is a feature of quantum mechanics that allows particles with two distinct quantum states to share a much closer relationship than classical physics allows. If two particles are entangled, ...

Although this is not the first cloak built from common materials (we've even seen 3D-printed ones), their cloak can reportedly hide macroscopic objects from sight and, crucially, work well enough ...

In phase 1–2 trials in patients with resectable, macroscopic stage III melanoma, neoadjuvant immunotherapy was more efficacious than adjuvant immunotherapy. In this phase 3 trial, we randomly ...
