Electric cars and laptop batteries could charge up much faster and last longer thanks to a new structure that can be used to make much better capacitors in the future.

Scientists built a "smart filter" that can work with a cheap smartphone camera to transform low-resolution photos into supersharp images without glare and other issues.

Researchers have found an elemental physical interaction between light and magnetism that might lead to the next generation of computing memory.

Using pulse current charging, or a constant current divided with a few short breaks, lithium-ion batteries hold up better over hundreds of charging cycles and can last twice as long.

The creators of the Taichi chiplet claim it's more energy-efficient and scalable than other photonic components and can be used to train superhuman AI models in the future.

Researchers have designed waterproof gloves equipped with sensors that can translate hand gestures into messages, which could help divers communicate better.

Scientists have created an n-channel transistor using diamond for the first time, potentially leading to faster components that can work in extreme conditions.

New chip design uses photons rather than electrons to perform calculations, and scientists hope to integrate the technology into future graphics cards to train AI.

The new disc is based on a material called AIE-DDPR, which has a much higher storage density than other formats.
