Whether bismuth is part of a class of materials highly suitable for quantum computing and spintronics was a long-standing issue. Research has now revealed that the true nature of bismuth was masked by ...

This scheme reveals the distinct morphologies of synthesized Bi-based catalysts and highlights essential strategies to improve performance. Bismuth nanosheets (Bi NSs) exhibit high activity and ...

Electronic devices rely on materials whose electrical properties change with temperature, making them less stable in extreme conditions. A discovery by McGill University researchers that challenges ...

Kobe University quantum solid state physicist FUSEYA Yuki proved that the surface of bismuth masks the fact that the bulk material is not "topological," a property valuable for a material's use in ...
