Physicists at Delft University of Technology have created a microchip using a unique combination of two Nobel Prize-winning techniques, optical trapping and frequency combs. This…
A dart that is less sensitive to player errors and is therefore almost 50% more accurate than a conventional dart. TU Delft researchers may have…
DNA replication is the process whereby cells make an exact copy of their DNA before cell division. A key part of the intricate DNA replication…
Chromosomes are organized into loops that regulate genetic information processing, and these loops are extruded by SMC protein complexes like condensin and cohesin. The DNA-binding…
Researchers have developed an alternative positioning system that is more robust and accurate than GPS, especially in urban settings. An alternative positioning system that is…
Quantum Heat Pump: A New Measuring Tool for Physicists Physicists have built a quantum scale heat pump made from particles of light. This device brings…
Delft University of Technology scientists have created baker’s yeast with human muscle genes. Human muscle genes were successfully inserted into the DNA of baker’s yeast…
Scientists have constructed the smallest flow-driven motors in the world. Inspired by iconic Dutch windmills and biological motor proteins, they created a self-configuring flow-driven rotor…
A new way to build synthetic materials out of tiny glass particles – so-called colloids – has been found by researcher Laura Rossi and her…
Associate professor Mazhar Ali and his research group at Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) have discovered one-way superconductivity without magnetic fields, something that was…
Have you ever wondered if bacteria make distinctive sounds? If we could listen to bacteria, we would be able to know whether they are alive…
“Until now researchers have encoded and stabilized. We now show that we can compute as well.” Researchers at QuTech—a collaboration between the TU Delft and…
A team of researchers from TU Delft managed to design one of the world’s most precise microchip sensors; the device can function at room temperature…
Atomically thin van der Waals magnets are widely seen as the ultimately compact media for future magnetic data storage and fast data processing. Controlling the…
How materials behave depends on the interactions between countless atoms. You could see this as a giant group chat in which atoms are continuously exchanging…
A team of researchers from QuTech in the Netherlands reports realization of the first multi-node quantum network, connecting three quantum processors. In addition, they achieved…
A microscope used by Antoni van Leeuwenhoek to conduct pioneering research contains a surprisingly ordinary lens, as new research by Rijksmuseum Boerhaave Leiden and TU…
The heart of any computer, its central processing unit, is built using semiconductor technology, which is capable of putting billions of transistors onto a single…
