When two oxide materials are layered together to form a heterostructure, new electronic properties such as superconductivity \u2013 the state in which a material can conduct electricity without resistance, typically at hundreds of degrees below freezing \u2013 and magnetism somehow form at their interface, which is the juncture where two materials meet. But very little is known about how to control these electronic states because few techniques can probe below the interface.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Discovery by scientists at Berkeley Lab, UC Berkeley could help find silicon\u2019s successor in race against Moore\u2019s Law.
