A research team of Energy Science and Engineering at DGIST has come up with a technology to create environmentally friendly water-borne semiconductor inks using surfactant which is additives that combine substances of diverse properties and a component of soap.
A metamaterial with the potential to twist to the left or to the right when impacted by a solid, straight push has been designed by scientists. According to Corentin Coulais, this chiral response is contrary to the expectations of ordinary solid mechanics.
A group of researchers led by the University of California San Diego have for the first time detected nanoscale variations deep within hybrid perovskite crystals that could offer new understandings into developing economical and high-efficient solar cells.
Water- and dirt-repellent outdoor clothing and sportswear, or anti-fog windshields – there are many daily use products that can gain from very hydrophobic coatings. For such coatings, researchers guided by Dr. Bastian E. Rapp at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) have created Fluoropor, a material that is both abrasion-resistant and transparent and that comprises of a fluorinated polymer foam with continuous nano/micro-structure. Fluoropor is described in Nature Scientific Reports.
Chemists have created another catalyst that can selectively trigger a carbon-hydrogen bond, part of a continuing strategy to transform the field of organic synthesis and pave the way for new chemical space.
The heat generated in electronic devices (e.g. computers) is generally wasted. At present, physicists from Bielefeld University have come up with a technique to put the waste heat to good use—they use the heat to produce magnetic signals called as “spin currents.”
A new catalyst, referring to a substance capable of activating oxidation processes in low-reactive components of gas and oil, has been developed by a team of scientists from the Research Institute of Chemistry (RIC) of RUDN University in collaboration with colleagues from major scientific centers.
The field of electrochemistry has gone through a resurgence in the recent past, and at present, a number of research teams are analyzing the environment-friendly synthesis or transformation of molecules.
In a number of countries carbon dioxide (CO2) capture remains a priority as the world looks to tackle climate change. Particularly, the latest report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change reveals that geological storage of CO2 is needed for all scenarios that can meet 430 - 550 ppm CO2 atmospheric concentrations.
A Bristol-led, global project studying a new technique of manipulating the growth of organic crystals, with potential advantages for pharmaceutical development, has progressed further with the launch of a new £1 million laboratory.
