For several years, Bell scientists have been experimenting with thin wafers of crystalline materials known as orthoferrites, which are compounds of iron oxides and such rare-earth minerals as ...

In work that could dramatically boost the capabilities of "lab on a chip" devices, MIT researchers have created a way to use tiny bubbles to mimic the capabilities of a computer. In work that could ...

Bubbles add fizz to champagne and spring to foam mattresses, but the details about how they form have been murky. A new computer simulation now challenges a theory about bubble formation that has been ...

A computer that carries out calculations using tiny bubbles instead of electricity has been developed by US researchers. The “microfluidic” computer performs calculation by squeezing bubbles through ...

CAMBRIDGE, Mass.--In work that could dramatically boost the capabilities of "lab on a chip" devices, MIT researchers have created a way to use tiny bubbles to mimic the capabilities of a computer. The ...
