Rice engineers led by materials scientists Pulickel Ajayan and Jun Lou have developed a method to make atom-flat sensors that seamlessly integrate with devices…
From iPhones on Earth to rovers on Mars, most electronics only function within a certain temperature range. By blending two organic materials together,…
Scientists mapping out the quantum characteristics of superconductors–materials that conduct electricity with no energy loss–have entered a new regime.
A team led by Rutgers University and including scientists from the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory has demonstrated an x-ray…
Zinc oxide (ZnO) has long been recognized as an effective sunscreen agent. However, there have been calls for sunscreens containing ZnO nanoparticles to be…
In a joint project, researchers from the Belgian NPO Sirris and the Fraunhofer Institute for Applied Polymer Research IAP have investigated technical coatings…
Researchers led by Dr Devesh Mistry from the University of Leeds discovered a new non-porous material that has unique and inherent “auxetic” stretching…
For the first time, BAM scientists have systematically depicted at which laser intensities and with which materials the X-ray emission surpasses the permitted…
When strolling along the beach, our footprints tell us that the sand under the surface must have moved but not precisely where or how.
