A study conducted by the University of Tennessee (UT) and the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) could lead to creation of materials for energy-related applications.
GASERA ONE is a portable device for conducting ultra-sensitive, multi-gas analysis. Using its patented, cantilever-enhanced photoacoustic technology, Gasera Ltd. delivers a market-disruptive solution for climate change p...
A group of researchers from the UK, including academics from Cardiff University, has demonstrated the first practical laser that has been grown directly on a silicon substrate.
A team of physicists from the University of California, San Diego and The University of Manchester is creating tailor-made materials for cutting-edge research and perhaps a new generation of optoelectronic devices. The materials make it easier for the researchers to manipulate excitons, which are pairs of an electron and an electron hole bound to each other by an electrostatic force.
UChicago scientists have discovered evidence in a meteorite that a rare element, curium, was present during the formation of the solar system. The finding ends a 35-year-old debate on its possible presence in the early solar system, and plays a crucial role in reassessing models of stellar evolution and synthesis of elements in stars. Details of the discovery appear in the March 4 edition of Science Advances.
Cornell University is leading an effort that will empower scientists, engineers and entrepreneurs throughout the nation to design and create new interface materials – materials that do not exist in nature and possess unprecedented properties – thanks to a $25 million grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF).
Science unites people – irrespective of the general political climate. At the beginning of March 2016, a German-Russian research cooperation in engineering, funded by the DFG, is being launched for the first time. For a period of presumably six years, three German and four Russian research groups will jointly enter uncharted territory in the field of magnetic hybrid materials.
Cooks are aware of the fact that often lumps are created when powder is dissolved in a liquid, like that witnessed in the case of polenta in water or semolina in milk.
For the first time, static electricity has been harnessed by researchers to control chemical reactions. This breakthrough achievement could pave the way for cheaper nanotechnology and cleaner industry. The researchers applied an electric field as a catalyst for the Diels-Alder reaction, a common reaction, and were able optimize its reaction rate by a factor of five.
A method to synthesize the first binary compound of oxygen and krypton - a krypton oxide, has been formulated by a team of theoretical chemists at the Institute of Physical Chemistry of the Polish Academy of Sciences. It has been discovered that this unusual substance can be produced even in the existing laboratories using very high pressure.
