Ion gels have attracted much attention due to their unique properties such as low tendency to evaporate at room temperature, high thermal stability and a high…
The team published their results in July in Nano Letters, an American Chemical Society journal. Scientists from the University of Tokyo, Yokohama National…
However, electric currents in solids are formed by electrons. In metals, the electrons do not collide with each other, but they scatter with lattice defects….
Resins and other materials that react under light to form polymers, or long chains of molecules, are attractive for 3D printing of parts ranging from…
Materials scientists have sussed out the physical phenomenon underlying the promising electrical properties of a class of materials called superionic crystals….
In today's information technology, light and electron charge are the main media for information processing and transfer. In the search for information…
The international team of researchers created surfaces which are coated with a molecule which has a Ruthenium-atom in its center. This molecule-complex, which…
Rice University scientists have developed micron-sized calcium silicate spheres that could lead to stronger and greener concrete, the world's most-used…
The ability of metallic or semiconducting materials to absorb, reflect and act upon light is of primary importance to scientists developing optoelectronics -…
Researchers in Japan have found a way to create innovative materials by blending metals with precision control. Their approach, based on a concept called atom…
In a new paper in the journal Progress in Organic Coatings, researchers at four organizations–NIST and industry partners Eastman Chemical Co., the Hyundai…
This breakthrough has been led by Professor Hyun-Wook Lee in the School of Energy and Chemical Engineering at UNIST in collaboration with the Agency for…
Nothing foretells the coming of winter like frost on windshields.
The magnetic properties of metals can change when they are heated or cooled. “Iron, for example, is only ferromagnetic below 768 degrees Celsius; nickel's…
Living organisms expand and contract soft tissues to achieve complex, 3-D movements and functions, but replicating those movements with man-made materials has…
Many of today's silicon-based electronic components contain 2D materials such as graphene. Incorporating 2D materials like graphene — which is composed of a…
