In a recent study published in Physical Review Letters (PRL), researchers delved into the potential of quadratic electron-phonon coupling to boost superconductivity by forming quantum bipolarons. Electron-phonon coupling involves the interaction between electrons and vibrations in a lattice known as phonons. This interaction plays a crucial role in enabling superconductivity in certain materials by aiding

Photonic alloys, a class of materials that combine photonic crystals, have shown great potential in controlling electromagnetic wave propagation. However, a common issue with these materials is the phenomenon of light backscattering, which hinders their performance as waveguides. Finding solutions to reduce or eliminate light backscattering is crucial for advancing the practical application of photonic
The traditional method of ethylene production involves the fossil-powered steam cracking of ethane, a high-energy process that contributes significantly to greenhouse gas emissions. This process is not only energy-intensive but also associated with a substantial carbon footprint. As the demand for ethylene continues to rise, there is a pressing need for more sustainable methods of
