“It’s tough to replace the current transistor technology, because semiconductors do such a fantastic job,” said Roman Engel-Herbert, assistant professor of…
At issue is something called refractive index, which measures how much light bends when it moves through a substance. Air, for example, has a refractive index…
To minimize vehicle weight and fuel consumption while providing the highest level of crash safety, automotive bodies are reinforced with elements made from…
Artificial cells that mimic their natural counterparts help scientists learn the secrets of complex processes, such as how plant cells turn sunlight, water,…
The work, published this week in Nature Communications, details how electronic properties at the edges of organic molecular systems differ from the rest of the…
