It's been a long time since Alice Charton got a good look at a human face. There are plenty of people moving through her world, of course—her husband, her friends, her doctors, her neighbors—but ...

A new computer chip inspired by the human brain could fix some of the biggest problems with artificial intelligence. The system – built around a “memristor” that mimics the way that neurons are ...

European carmakers and parts suppliers have warned of shortages of key chips supplied by Nexperia that would force stoppages at production lines in Europe - Copyright ...

As quantum computers advance, they are expected to be able to break tried-and-true security schemes that currently keep most sensitive data secure from attackers. Scientists and policymakers are ...

In a paper published in the journal Science, researchers led by Professor Joshua Yang report a new type of memory device that kept working reliably at 700 degrees Celsius. That is hotter than molten ...

Scientists have taken another major step toward creating stable quantum computers. Using a specialized quantum computer chip (an essential component of a quantum computer) as a kind of tiny laboratory ...

A recent archaeological discovery suggests a major cultural milestone: the onset of naturalistic depictions of people with animals around 12,000 years ago, almost three thousand years earlier than ...

The chip that works this optical magic is not much to see. Under a powerful microscope attached to a computer at the Science headquarters, it resembles an oversize circuit board. To the naked eye, it ...
