Semiconducting materials with two-dimensional (2D) properties have been recognized for their unique optoelectronic characteristics that could revolutionize the field of electronics. While bulk semiconductors have been widely used in the past, the integration of 2D materials with gate dielectrics has presented significant challenges, leading to the degradation of transistor performance due to interfacial traps. However,
The Boeing Starliner spacecraft recently completed its uncrewed flight back to Earth, as reported by NASA. However, the return was delayed by several months, which was not part of the original plan. Consequently, NASA astronauts Barry “Butch” Wilmore and Suni Williams will remain aboard the International Space Station until the following year. The Starliner touched

This strategy has been a source of frustration for many consumers, as they feel pressured to upgrade to the Pro models in order to access
In the heart of Washington, D.C., contractors are working tirelessly to install heat pumps in townhouses as part of a larger effort to embrace greater home electrification. While not as glamourous as electric cars or as visible as solar panels, heat pumps play a crucial role in the shift towards more energy-efficient living spaces. This
Roblox is known for being a virtual world where kids can play games, socialize, and create their own content. However, the platform is now taking a significant step by allowing game developers to charge users real money for their games. This new model, announced at the company’s annual developer conference, aims to provide developers with
Quantum computing is at the forefront of technological innovation, promising unprecedented computing power and breakthroughs in various fields. However, the realization of fault-tolerant quantum computers has proven to be a complex challenge due to the inherent fragility of quantum systems. Traditional approaches to error correction involve encoding a single logical qubit onto multiple physical qubits,
In the world of Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2, players are eagerly awaiting the release of the first round of patches. While the game has received positive feedback overall, there are some notable issues that have been raised by the community. One of the main grievances is the lack of ultrawide monitor support. This missing
Following an engine fire incident on a Cathay Pacific flight, Europe’s aviation safety agency has taken a proactive step in mandating inspections on a part of the fleet of Airbus A350 wide-body jets in operation. The engines on Cathay’s A350s are manufactured by Rolls-Royce, which has confirmed the initiation of “a one-time precautionary engine inspection
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has long been a topic of interest, but there are certain aspects of it that delve into more philosophical and complex territory. One such concept is Roko’s Basilisk, a thought experiment that has sparked debates and discussions within the AI community. The basilisk, a mythological creature known for its deadly gaze, serves
