Researchers at MIT and Texas Instruments have developed a new type of radio frequency identification (RFID) chip that is virtually impossible to hack.
Researchers David Moore and Timothy Briggs from Sandia National Laboratories and their teams are analyzing the inner parts of a composite material. Moore had a rectangular piece of carbon composite material with a surface that was smooth with a weak woven pattern.
A team of researchers at Umeå University have demonstrated, for the first time, the possibility of an efficient charge transport in semiconducting polymers, by controlled chain and crystallite orientation. These pioneering results, while enhancing polymer charge transport by over 1,000 times, can influence organic opto-electronic devices, and were published in a recent issue of Advanced Materials.
Oil and water don't mix, but when one is finely dispersed in the other a liquid mixture is produced with useful properties. An emulsion comprising of tiny droplets of one of the liquids immersed in the other is the usual form, found in salad dressings, cosmetics and industrial lubricants.
A research group at France's National Institute of Applied Sciences of Lyon (INSA de Lyon) have discovered a technique to improve the mechanical energy harvesting performance potential of smart materials called, "electrostrictive polymers."
A magnetic state in a few atomic laters of artificially synthesized materials, known as transitional metal oxides, has been developed by researchers from the University of Arkansas and their colleagues.
There are many different ways to make nanomaterials but weaving, the oldest and most enduring method of making fabrics, has not been one of them – until now. An international collaboration led by scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE)’s Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) and the University of California (UC) Berkeley, has woven the first three-dimensional covalent organic frameworks (COFs) from helical organic threads.
A group of researchers at ETH Zurich have developed an advanced 3D microprinting method, that can be utilized to develop small, intricate, overhanging metal structures in just one simple step. This latest technique holds potential for designing a wide range of microtools, such as tools for keyhole surgeries and complicated components for watches.
The W.M. Keck Foundation has awarded a $1 million grant to Lehigh to study and discover the mechanisms that govern anti-thermal processes that appear to reverse nature.
Although compressed natural gas represents a cleaner and more efficient fuel for vehicles, its volatile nature requires a reinforced, heavy tank that stores the gas at high pressure and therefore limits vehicle design. Researchers at the University of Pittsburgh’s Swanson School of Engineering are utilizing metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) to develop a new type of storage system that would adsorb the gas like a sponge and allow for more energy-efficient storage and use.
