If quantum computing is going to become an every-day reality, we need better superconducting thin films, the hardware that enables storage and processing of quantum information. Too often, these thin ...

Californian and Israeli researchers have created a biological computer -- a machine made from biological molecules -- that successfully decoded two images stored and encrypted within DNA. Share on ...

In the not-so-far future it may be possible to run entire computer networks inside of living cells thanks to a recent breakthrough in molecular computing from scientists in the US. According to ...

Hewlett-Packard Co. and the University of California at Los Angeles are building logic switches and memory cells out of individual molecules of organic chemicals. In a competing project at Harvard ...

Scientists have shown how an optical chip can simulate the motion of atoms within molecules at the quantum level, which could lead to better ways of creating chemicals for use as pharmaceuticals.
