Four years ago, Tel Aviv University scientists engineered a frictionless structure, two atoms thick (see here previously). Last week (see here) one TAU team used this discovery to simulate “on-off” switching. Now another team shows how this “superlubricity” vastly enhances … Continue reading →

Researchers at Tel Aviv University have engineered the thinnest piece of technology – layers of Boron and Nitrogen just two atoms thick. Electricity causes the layers to slide and can be used to control advanced electronic devices. https://science.sciencemag.org/content/372/6549/1462 https://www.timesofisrael.com/worlds-tiniest-tech-tel-aviv-university-unveils-2-atom-thick-data-storage/ https://www.jpost.com/health-science/israeli-scientists-create-the-worlds-thinnest-tech-just-2-atoms-thick-672448 … Continue reading →
