Peng Wei, an associate professor of physics at UC Riverside, has filed for a U.S. patent on a novel process that enhances the performance of quantum computers by coating niobium metal superconductor surfaces with an ultra-thin layer of gold.

Stressed DNA sets off a cascade of failures in the body linked to heart conditions, neurodegeneration, and chronic inflammation. A new, UCR-designed tool interrupts this process, preserving DNA before the damage causes disease.

As China slashed sulfur dioxide emissions by roughly 75 percent, a new study finds Earth began warming much, much faster.

Researchers have uncovered how to manipulate electrical flow through crystalline silicon, a discovery that could lead to smaller, faster, and more efficient devices by harnessing quantum electron behavior.
