Erlantz Lizundia, a researcher in the UPV/EHU's department of Physical Chemistry and expert in cellulose, started the research during a period of time he spent…
The researchers developed the first nonreciprocal mechanical materials using metamaterials, which are synthetic materials with properties that cannot be found…
The language of computers is written in just two symbols — ones and zeroes, meaning yes or no. But a world of richer possibilities awaits us if we could…
This new ultra-thin oxide semiconductors was created by a team of scientists, led by Professor Zonghoon Lee of Materials Science and Engineering at UNIST. In…
Machines and devices used in modern industry are required to withstand harsh conditions. When the environmental temperature changes, the volume of the…
Nature does amazing things with limited design materials. Grass, for example, can support its own weight, resist strong wind loads, and recover after being…
The material, called a near-perfect broadband absorber, absorbs more than 87 percent of near-infrared light (1,200 to 2,200 nanometer wavelengths), with 98…
Semiconductors lie at the heart of many of the electronic devices that govern our daily lives. The proper functioning of semiconductor devices relies on their…
Metals which can be bent as gum pave the way for new industrial applications for example in the aerospace industry. These so-called gum metals exist but the…
As of today, the fabrication of larger structures or larger batches of optical elements via 2PP takes too much time for an industrial scale production: 3D…
Electrical engineers at Duke University have created the world's first electromagnetic metamaterial made without any metal. The device's ability to absorb…
In nature, mechanical stimuli such as muscle movements ensure that animals’ legs adhere to surfaces and can be detached again. The scientists in Kiel are using…
The potential applications of this breakthrough are numerous. The imprinted designs could be used to impart certain optical effects on a fiber or make it…
Phase transitions surround us–for instance, liquid water changes to ice when frozen and to steam when boiled. Now, researchers at the Carnegie Institution for…
Researchers at Rice University and Kazan Federal University in Russia have found a way to extract radioactivity from water and said their discovery could help…
In order to protect their offspring from being eaten by predators near the ground, green lacewings deposit their eggs on the underside of leaves – on the ends…
