Science X Newsletter Mon, Apr 1

Dear manoj dole, Here is your customized Science X Newsletter for April 1, 2024: Technology news Using a 2D perovskite oxide as a photoactive high-κ gate dielectric Two-dimensional (2D) superconducting materials have been found to be promising for the development of miniaturized optoelectronic devices. To perform well while consuming less energy, however, these smaller devices require a higher gate capacitance (i.e., gates that can store more electrical charge in proportion to the voltage applied). An optimization-based method to enhance autonomous parking Vehicles that can drive themselves have been a long sought after goal both of robotics research and the automotive industry. While various companies have been investing in these vehicles and testing them, they have so far only deployed them in a limited number of settings. A...
