Stephen Lin Er Chow has relocated from the National University of Singapore to Zhejiang University following his publication of a copper-free superconducting oxide in Nature.
The 2025 Nobel Prize in Physics has been awarded to John Clarke, Michel H. Devoret, and John M. Martinis for their discovery of macroscopic quantum tunneling and energy quantization in an electrical circuit. Their work, conducted in the 1980s at the University of California, Berkeley, demonstrated quantum effects on a macroscale using a Josephson junction. The laureates will share $1.1 million, with the ceremony set for December 10, 2025, in Stockholm.
