  • In addition to manipulating the charge or spin of electrons, another way to control electric current is by using the 'valley' degree-of-freedom of electrons. The first demonstration of the generation, transport and detection of valley-polarized electrons in bulk diamond now opens up new opportunities for quantum control in electronic devices.

  • For diamond to be a viable semiconductor it must be possible to change its conductivity by adding impurities — known as dopants. With the discovery of a new dopant that generates electron conductivity at room temperature, diamond emerges as an electronic-grade material.

  • Ancient pathogen genomics sheds light on Yersinia pestis evolution and provides evidence of a dog infection during the Late Neolithic, indicating that the pathogen came frequently into contact with humans without causing significant outbreaks.

  • Alexander Immel et al. performed genome-wide analyses of 42 individuals from a collective burial in Niedertiefenbach, Germany from the Wartberg Culture. The authors find that this population had a large hunter-gatherer ancestry component and a distinct HLA pool, which indicates immune defenses against viral pathogens.
