In a radical departure from conventional lens-based optics, MIT scientists have developed a sophisticated optical system made of mesh-like webs of light-detecting fibers. The fiber constructs, which have a number of adva...
Cornell University researchers have created a broadband light amplifier on a silicon chip, a major breakthrough in the quest to create photonic microchips. In such microchips, beams of light traveling through microscopic...
After 23 years of research in the USA, most recently as a professor at the University of California in Berkeley, Eicke Weber is returning to Germany. On July 1, the 56-year-old materials researcher will become director o...
A substance used in nanotechnology contains unusual structures at its surface, a team of researchers led by Oleg Shpyrko, Distinguished Postdoctoral Fellow at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Argonne National Labora...
Scientists have discovered something new about exotic particles called solitons.
Since the 1980s, scientists have known that solitons can carry an electrical charge when traveling through certain organic polymers. A n...
Researchers and engineers at the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory have won six R&D 100 Awards, presented each year by R&D Magazine in recognition of the year's most significant technol...
Brown University and Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) have established a collaborative relationship to advance research and teaching, with an emphasis in materials science.
Under a memorandum of agreement, approve...
The University of Oregon has received a five-year, $3.2 million grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) that will further unite Oregon universities with international technology companies.
The expanded colla...
Noting that more wood is consumed every year in the United States than all metals, plastics and masonry cement combined, the Government Accountability Office (GAO) has issued a report on federal research and product deve...
Rust never sleeps, in the words of songwriter Neil Young. But, if materials scientists cannot put corrosion into a deep slumber perhaps there is a way to produce smart materials that can heal themselves and so stop the s...
