A research team from Germany developed an analytical model to describe the structural dynamics of photoexcited thin films and verified it by ultrafast X-ray…
Writing in the Nov. 14 issue of the journal Nature Communications, the researchers describe finding this unusual arrangement of atoms while studying…
Researchers at Drexel University and Dalian University of Technology in China have chemically engineered a new, electrically conductive nanomaterial that is…
More comfortable, more environmentally friendly
For more than 50 years, scientists have debated what turns particular oxide insulators, in which electrons barely move, into metals, in which electrons flow…
Theorists have predicted the existence of intriguing properties at one-dimensional (1-D) boundaries between two crystalline components, but experimental…
Polymer solar cells are a delicately controlled mixture of a polymer donor and a fullerene acceptor. The cell is created by adding a solvent to the polymer and…
Polymers are used in cars, planes and hundreds of consumer products, and scientists have long been challenged to create polymers that are immune to…
Researchers studying iron-based superconductors are combining novel electronic structure algorithms with the high-performance computing power of the Department…
Automotive, aerospace and machinery industries, among others, are resorting more and more to the use of 3D printing methods to produce manufacturing…
If you’ve ever gone for a spin in a luxury car and felt your back being warmed or cooled by a seat-based climate control system, then you’ve likely experienced…
Researchers at McGill University have succeeded in simultaneously observing the reorganizations of atomic positions and electron distribution during the…
A new monitoring solution has now been developed by one of BAM’s research teams: plastic labels with a temperature memory.
Heat-assisted magnetic recording (HAMR) is a new process that realizes the three goals of magnetic recording — readability, writeability and stability. A*STAR…
The combined device will help scientists study new materials and processes used to make advanced technologies, including state-of-the-art semiconductors and…
Now the day isn't far off when your cell phone may depend on it. Two recent papers emphasize the point by demonstrating complementary approaches to fine-tuning…
