    AI chip developed for decentralized use without the cloud

    A new AI chip developed at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) works without the cloud server or internet connections needed by existing chips. The AI Pro, designed by Prof Hussam Amrouch, is modelled on the human brain. Its innovative…

    Invisible currents at the edge: Research team shows how magnetic particles reveal a hidden rule of nature

    If you’ve ever watched a flock of birds move in perfect unison or seen ripples travel across a pond, you’ve witnessed nature’s remarkable ability to coordinate motion. Recently, a team of scientists and engineers at Rice University discovered a…

  • Unexpected density functional dependence of the antipolar $$\boldsymbol{Pbcn}$$ phase in HfO2

    Unexpected density functional dependence of the antipolar $$\boldsymbol{Pbcn}$$ phase in HfO2

    Ground state properties

    Despite the simple chemical composition, HfO2 exhibits a rich array of polymorphic phase transitions. In this study, we focus on the Pbcn phase and its stability relative to other polymorphs, including the monoclinic (M)…
