Adding zinc ions to lithium niobate crystals cuts the energy needed for polarization switching by 69%, enabling visible-light programming of memristors for brain-inspired computing.

Researchers at the Institute for Molecular Science (NINS, Japan) and SOKENDAI have demonstrated a more than 2000% voltage-induced enhancement of near-field nonlinear optical responses. To achieve this ...

More than 30 mammalian genes comprise the TGFβ superfamily of growth factors. They have important roles in the regulation of cellular functions both in the adult organism and during embryogenesis.
