A team of researchers from Florida State University recently discovered a new crystal structure of organic-inorganic hybrid materials capable of making room for new applications for optoelectronic devices such as lasers and light-emitting diodes.
Rotary evaporators typically have an integral water or dry ice condenser which, when combined with a well-controlled automatic vacuum pump, provides an effective trap for most solvent vapours. However some solvent will always escape the condenser trap and make its way into the exhaust of the vacuum pump and out into your laboratory environment.
Tufts University engineers have created a new format of solids made from silk protein that can be preprogrammed with biological, chemical, or optical functions, such as mechanical components that change color with strain, deliver drugs, or respond to light, according to a paper published online this week in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS).
Scientists at Stanford University and the Department of Energy’s SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory have discovered a way to use diamondoids – the smallest possible bits of diamond – to assemble atoms into the thinnest possible electrical wires, just three atoms wide.
Scientists, including several from the University of California, Riverside, have developed a transparent, self-healing, highly stretchable conductive material that can be electrically activated to power artificial muscles and could be used to improve batteries, electronic devices, and robots.
The same researchers who pioneered the use of a quantum mechanical effect to convert heat into electricity have figured out how to make their technique work in a form more suitable to industry.
Hybrid organic-inorganic materials are primarily known for their extreme porosity. These materials were developed almost 20 years ago by Gérard Férey, laureate of the CNRS 2010 Gold Medal, and his team. This remarkable feature provides a wide range of applications in the fields of sustainable development, health, and energy.
Bone tissue regeneration, one of the issues of tissue engineering, is a research area for Dmitri Gorin and his international colleagues, a leading research fellow at the RASA Center in Tomsk Polytechnic University.
Traditional computer memory, known as DRAM, uses electric fields to store information. In DRAM, the presence or absence of an electric charge is indicated either by number 1 or number 0.
A new iron-based material that provides insight into the microscopic origins of high-temperature superconductivity has been synthesized by a team of physicists from the Center for Quantum Materials (RCQM), Rice University.
