The work will help researchers tune surface properties of perovskites, a promising alternative and supplement to silicon, for more efficient photovoltaics.

The printed solenoids could enable electronics that cost less and are easier to manufacture — on Earth or in space.

An MIT team precisely controlled an ultrathin magnet at room temperature, which could enable faster, more efficient processors and computer memories.

An exotic electronic state observed by MIT physicists could enable more robust forms of quantum computing.

Solves paradox associated with transmission of quantum information

MIT engineers developed a tag that can reveal with near-perfect accuracy whether an item is real or fake. The key is in the glue on the back of the tag.

Applying a small voltage to a catalyst can increase the rates of reactions used in petrochemical processing, pharmaceutical manufacture, and many other processes.

MIT spinout Elicio developed a vaccine based on a lymph node-targeting approach first developed at the Koch Institute. Phase 1 solid tumor clinical trial results are promising so far.

A piano that captures the data of live performance offers the MIT community new possibilities for studying and experimenting with music.
