Nagoya University researchers have presented a report in Nature Communications highlighting the development of an organic catalyst (organocatalyst) that activates a highly stereoselective 1,6-addition of azlactones (nucleophile) to a δ-aryl dienyl carbonyl compound (electrophile) to produce high yields of amino acid derivatives.
A research team headed by Professor Hideto Tsuji carries out basic and applied research works on biodegradable polymers obtained from renewable resources such as potato or corn starch.
The size of computer electronics is constantly shrinking that the very electrical currents essential for their operations can no longer be employed for logic computations in the same ways as their larger-scale ancestors.
A new material that can be used to replace skull bone lost to injury, birth defect, or surgery is being developed by a team including researchers from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute.
A recent Stanford study illustrates a mathematical model for designing innovative materials used in electrical storage devices, such as capacitors and car batteries. This method may greatly quicken discovery of new materials that offer efficient and economical ways to store energy.
Researchers have been able to capture the ephemeral electron movements in a transient state of a reaction vital in optoelectronic and biochemical procedures, and for the first time, could directly characterize it using ultrafast X-ray spectroscopy at the Department of Energy’s Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab).
Inspired by the Marvel Universe, researchers have created a self-healing polymeric material with an aim to develop self-repairing electronics and soft robotics. The polymeric material is transparent, stretchable, and conducts ions to create current. It could one day help a broken smartphone to stitch itself back together.
A team of researchers from North Carolina State University have developed elastic, touch-sensitive fibers with the capability of interfacing with electronic devices.
The importance of silicon cannot be overestimated especially with regards to solar energy, computing, and other technological applications. Element number 14 is also abundantly available in the Earth’s crust, and there is more to explore about how to harness its properties.
A recent discovery highlighted that a novel electronic phase is exhibited by alpha-tin, generally known as gray tin, when its crystal structure is strained.
