A team headed by chemist Dr. Michael J. Bojdys at Humboldt University Berlin recently synthesised a new organic semiconductor material in the carbon-nitride…
The team first explored growth of the flat crystals on substrates patterned with sharp steps and trenches. Surprisingly, the crystals conformally grew up and…
A team of researchers at Texas A&M University has developed an innovative way to print therapeutics in 3D for regenerative medicine.
In 2004, researchers discovered a super thin material that is at least a 100 times stronger than steel and the best known conductor of heat and electricity.
With a wide range of healthcare, energy and military applications, stretchable electronics are revered for their ability to be compressed, twisted and…
After years of making progress on an organic aqueous flow battery, Harvard University researchers ran into a problem: the organic anthraquinone molecules that…
A group of scientists from Russia and Ireland found out how quality of tissue-engineered biomeshes (biological “frame” which is used for tissue repair) is…
Lighter and faster aircraft and vehicles require lighter materials. One of the most promising materials is aluminum, or rather, aluminum-based composites.
In the study, the researchers combined their expertise in foundational science and engineering to devise a method that uniformly incorporates eutectic gallium…
Published in Advanced Materials Interfaces, the study shows that by using monolayer molybdenum disulfide as an adhesion layer, quasi-2D gold can be deposited…
In particular, the up-to-now purely theoretical possibility of a lead-based 2D honeycomb material, called plumbene, has generated much attention because it has…
The group “Colloids and Nanooptics” of Prof. Dr. Matthias Karg at the Institute of Physical Chemistry has come up with a simple yet precise technique for…
Moreover, most existing strategies for the synthesis of ladder polymers suffer from severe limitations in terms of selectivity and quantitativity. Another…
The basic raw material for cement is limestone, which is converted to cement clinker in large furnaces. The environmental impact of this process is disastrous:…
The newly discovered electron-doped IBSC is BaTh2Fe4As4(N0.7O0.3)2, an intergrowth compound of un-doped BaFe2As2 and electron-doped ThFeAsN0.7O0.3 (see the…
While tremendously useful, these models do not directly show the rules and physics underlying the relationship between structure and property. And despite of…
