The miniaturization and increase in speed of electronic devices was one of the most spectacular achievements of 20th-century technology. We now have computer chips that contain billions of tran...
At room temperature, the extraordinary magnetoresistance of such non-magnetic materials is much larger than that of other magnetic materials, including those that exhibit giant or colossal magnetoresi...
Enormous advances in solar and stellar physics have been made in recent years as a result of helioseismology – the study of vibrations on the surface of the Sun. However, the Sun is only one sta...
Last year our group at the California Institute of Technology teamed up with Loren Pfeiffer and Ken West of Bell Labs to study how electrons tunnel between two parallel 2-D electron gases. These elect...
