For the experiment, the scientists shot at a 300-nanometer-thick foil of curium with accelerated calcium nuclei. In the collisions studied, the atomic nuclei…
Materials scientists are busy developing advanced materials, while also working to squeeze every bit of performance out of existing materials. This is…
Space is cold, dark, and lonely. Deadly, too, if any one of a million things goes wrong on your spaceship. It's certainly no place for a computer chip to fail,…
Diamonds are forever, except when they oxidize while cutting through iron, cobalt, nickel, chromium, or vanadium at high temperatures. Conversely, cubic boron…
Developing transparent or semitransparent solar cells with high efficiency and low cost to replace the existing opaque and expensive silicon-based solar panels…
DNA is typically arranged in a double helix, where two strands are intertwined like a coiled ladder, but previous research has shown the existence of unusual…
Until now transparent electrode materials for OLEDs have mainly consisted of indium tin oxide (ITO), which is expected to become economically challenging for…
The conference will be opened by Professor Dr. Bernhard Eitel, President of Heidelberg University, on Tuesday, September 15th, at 09:00 h, at Aula, building…
Imagine you are watching your favorite sports team in your home theater system: Not only are you right in the middle of the action thanks to 3D sound , you can…
At the 66th International Motor Show IAA in Frankfurt, Fraunhofer ILT will be presenting the joint project »Fraunhofer System Research for Electromobility II«…
This technology will allow market participants to more efficiently exchange and share energy resources, including renewables like wind and solar, based on…
“We were able to show that you gain deeper insights into the physics of how nanomaterials interact with molecules in their environment by looking at the…
Researchers have, for the first time, levitated individual nanodiamonds in vacuum. The research team is led by Nick Vamivakas at the University of Rochester…
In the course of billions of years continents break up, drift apart, and are pushed back together again. The cores of continents are, however, geologically…
It consists of flat membrane-enclosed compartments (called cisternae) that are densely packed on top of each other, like a stack of pancakes. Researchers at…
Visible security features on automotive spare parts represent a seal of quality for manufacturers and consumers. They guarantee that spare parts are original….
