Mechanoluminescence (ML) located within the near infrared (NIR) spectral range may have hold promising applications in in-situ and real-time biomechanical imaging.
Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy's Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL) have developed a new theoretical model explaining one way to make black silicon, an important material used in solar cells.
As most shoppers looking for a new vehicle know, electric vehicles typically carry a relatively hefty price tag. A primary contributor to this expense are the lithium-ion batteries that power the vehicle.
Hold your hands out in front of you, and no matter how you rotate them, it’s impossible to superimpose one over the other.
A novel lithium metal battery that can be recharged in a couple of minutes and charged and drained at least 6,000 times, more than any existing pouch battery cell, has been developed by researchers at the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS).
Using atomic-scale probing, researchers from Dresden University of Technology and the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf have elucidated the process of water adsorption in certain microporous materials known as hierarchical metal-organic frameworks (MOFs).
When water vapor meets metal, the resulting corrosion can lead to mechanical problems that harm a machine's performance. Through a process called passivation, it also can form a thin inert layer that acts as a barrier against further deterioration.
According to a study by UChicago scientists, it is possible to enhance a certain kind of chemical reaction that is frequently utilized to create novel drug candidates by using electricity.
Hydrogels are made of elastic networks of polymer chains that are permeated with water. They are soft, elastic, and biocompatible. As a result, the squishy materials are already widely used in contact lenses and wound care products. In addition, hydrogels have a lot of potential for use in food packaging, agriculture, and drug delivery systems.
Separating carbon dioxide molecules from gas mixtures necessitates the use of materials with extremely small pores. In collaboration with the Universities of Leipzig and Vienna, researchers from Friedrich Schiller University Jena have recently discovered a fresh method: they turned crystalline metal-organic framework compounds into glass.
