With $15.6 million support from the National Science Foundation (NSF), the University of Wisconsin–Madison center for research on materials like glass, semiconductors, and liquid crystals will continue to pursue its work.
Scientists at the Department of Material Sciences, Lomonosov MSU, have described the manner in which the battery efficiency and structure of created films are influenced when the ratio of components that form light-absorbing layer of a perovskite solar cell is altered. The outcomes of the research have been reported in the Journal of Physical Chemistry C.
An innovative weapon has been developed by scientists in the battle against deadly hospital-acquired infections - a textile capable of disinfecting itself.
Chemists at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Brookhaven National Laboratory have developed a new catalyst that accelerates the rate of a main step in “artificial photosynthesis”—an effort to imitate how algae, plants, and certain bacteria harness sunlight to change water and carbon dioxide into energy-rich fuels.
A research team from MIPT, Skoltech, and Dukhov Research Institute of Automatics, headed by ArtemOganov, employed a machine learning technique for modeling the behavior of uranium and aluminum in the crystalline and liquid phases at various pressures and temperatures.
Solid glass acts similar to slow-moving liquids and can be seen by looking at the waves at the bottom of old window panes.
Latest research reveals that an unusual kind of magnetic behavior discovered a couple of years ago holds great potential as a means to store data — one that could overcome major limits that might otherwise be indicating the end of “Moore’s Law,” which describes the continuing improvements in computation and data storage over the last few decades.
Glow-in-the-dark paints that have enhanced transparency and flexibility while also being easier and cheaper to manufacture are on the horizon courtesy of new research from Kyushu University.
The effects of surface tension are of central importance in many everyday phenomena: it causes small droplets of rain to stick to your windows, creates bubbles when you add detergent in your sink, and propels water-striding insects on the surface of ponds.
Using DNA from salmon, researchers in South Korea hope to make better biomedical and other photonic devices based on organic thin films. Often used in cancer treatments and health monitoring, thin films have all the capabilities of silicon-based devices with the possible added advantage of being more compatible with living tissue.
