The Technion-Israel Institute of Technology was established in 1912 in Haifa (Israel), and it has been always an oasis for cutting-edge knowledge generation and exchange with one common mission: generating social development for a better life. Thermoelectricity, superconductivity, and terahertz photoconductivity are analyzed by Prof. Yaron Amouyal (article number 1901789), Alex Hayat (article number 1807379), and Daniel Grave (article number 1901590), respectively. Mechanical behaviors of different materials are analyzed by Prof. Charles Diesendruck (intramolecular interactions in stretchable polymers; article number 1901806), Prof. Eugene Rabkin (pseudoelasticity in metal nanoparticles; article number 1807554), and Prof. Elad Koren (superlubricity of gold-graphite interfaces; article number 1901138).
