Chris Xu, IBM Professor of Engineering, has been reappointed to a three-year term. Read more

Using a precisely tuned, ultrafast laser, a Cornell researcher showed that the atomic structure of yttrium titanate could be changed to stabilize its magnetism at temperatures three times higher than was previously possible. Read more

A Cornell-led collaboration harnessed chemical reactions to make microscale origami machines self-fold – freeing them from the liquids in which they usually function, so they can operate in dry environments and at room temperature. Read more

Cornell researchers have developed an optical neural network that can filter relevant information from a scene before the visual image is detected by a camera, a method that may make it possible to build faster, smaller and more energy-efficient image sensors. Read more

A new study has changed where scientists think Nickelate's superconducting ability might originate, providing a blueprint for how more functional versions might be engineered in the future. Read more

A model system created by stacking a pair of monolayer semiconductors is giving physicists a simpler way to study confounding quantum behavior. Read more

Twelve Cornell and Weill Cornell Medicine faculty members – six of whom are also Cornell alumni – have been elected fellows of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, the world’s largest general scientific society. Read more

A Cornell-led collaboration has for the first time used voltage to turn on and off a material’s crystal symmetry, thereby controlling its electronic, optical and other properties – a discovery that could have a profound impact on building future memory and logic devices. Read more

Data science, molecular mechanisms, unconventional computing for optimization and machine learning, wave interaction with engineered materials, electrocatalysis, and compound semiconductor devices are among some of the research themes that helped six faculty members earn Cornell Engineering Research Excellence Awards.
