Metasurfaces: Robust and scalable quantum photonics processors Their results hint at the possibility of paradigm-shifting optical quantum devices based not on conventional, difficult-to-scale ...

The slimy, segmented, bottom-dwelling California blackworm is about as unappealing as it gets – but get a few dozen or thousand together, and they form a massive, entangled blob that seems to take on ...

Coordinated behaviors like swarming – from ant colonies to schools of fish – are found everywhere in nature. Researchers at the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS ...

When a crack forms in the new material, the long spaghetti strands spread out the stress by sliding past each other, allowing more rubber to crystallize as it stretches, and overall making the ...

The Harvard RoboBee has long shown it can fly, dive, and hover like a real insect. But what good is the miracle of flight without a safe way to land? A storied engineering achievement by the Harvard ...

Fish can accumulate high levels of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), even far from sources of contamination, according to a new study by researchers at The Harvard John A. Paulson School of ...

Harvard students enrolled in CS50, which teaches the fundamentals of computer programming for a range of languages, had some special help with their final projects this year — an AI chatbot called the ...

Recording the activity of large populations of single neurons in the brain over long periods of time is crucial to further our understanding of neural circuits, to enable novel medical device-based ...

Metalenses have been used to image microscopic features of tissue and resolve details smaller than a wavelength of light. Now they are going bigger. Researchers at the Harvard John A. Paulson School ...

Researchers from the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) have developed a new lithium metal battery that can be charged and discharged at least 6,000 times — more ...

When the Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha’apai volcano erupted on January 15, 2022 in the South Pacific, it produced a shock wave felt around the world and triggered tsunamis in Tonga, Fiji, New Zealand, Japan, ...

The duo now find themselves trying to be the mentors that can inspire the next generation of researchers in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM). They started the “Quantum ...
