  • Scientists research ‘matter waves’ to shine light on post electronics future

    Scientists research ‘matter waves’ to shine light on post electronics future

    Most modern technologies owe their success to advances in electronics. These devices harness the flow of electrons in different ways to create computers, charge batteries, light-up displays, and move motors. Now researchers are starting to explore ways to harness the flow of waves of whole atoms, called matter waves, to enable new kinds of sensors,…
