There’s big news in the world of tiny things.New research led by University of Cincinnati physics professors Howard Jackson and Leigh Smith could contribute to…
The self-assembled wires have a core of one composition and an outer layer of another, a desired trait for many advanced electronics applications. Led by…
Coatings that absorb as much of the energy of high-powered lasers as possible without breaking down are essential for optical power detectors that measure the…
Methane is a substantial driver of global climate change, contributing 30 percent of current net climate warming. Concern over methane is mounting, due to…
But cancers in one of the four groups — called “basal-like” or “triple-negative” breast cancer (TNBC) — have been particularly tricky to treat because they…
Adult heart muscle is the least regenerative of human tissues. But embryonic cardiomyocytes (cardiac muscle cells) can multiply, with embryonic stem cells…
Taking a significant step toward improving the power delivery of systems ranging from urban electrical grids to regenerative braking in hybrid vehicles,…
Stem cells can be coaxed to grow into new bone or new cartilage better and faster when given the right molecular cues and room inside a water-loving gel,…
The same material that formed the first primitive transistors more than 60 years ago can be modified in a new way to advance future electronics, according to a…
Geckos are known for their sticky adhesive toes that allow them to stick to, climb on, and run along surfaces in any orientation–even upside down! But until…
Commercial laser printers typically produce pin-sharp images with spots of ink about 20 micrometers apart, resulting in a resolution of 1,200 dots per inch…
Many devices used in everyday life — whether they be televisions, mobile phones or barcode scanners — are based on the manipulation of electric currents and…
The ORNL research team documented the atoms' unique behavior by first trapping groups of silicon atoms, known as clusters, in a single-atom-thick sheet of…
