Researchers from the Pohang University of Science and Technology (POSTECH) have tuned the band gap in Black Phosphorus (BP) to form a superior conductor, by transforming the semiconducting material into a special state of matter that has anisotropic dispersion. This achievement enables greater adaptability in design and optimization of solar panels, telecommunication lasers, and other such electronic and optoelectronic devices.
Pennsylvania State University and Rice University have opened a new center for the development of atomically thin 2D coatings for a range of applications.
A team of engineers from Penn State has created a cross-linked polymer nanocomposite comprising of boron nitride nanosheets that is capable of high-voltage capacity for energy storage at high temperatures.
Researchers at Karolinska Institutet, Sweden, and Aalto University, Finland, have developed a new technique to synthesize 3D nanostructures from DNA.
Electrically conducting fibers whose electrical conductivity increases by 200 times when stretched have been created by an international team of researchers based at The University of Texas at Dallas (UT Dallas).
Engineers and physicists at the University of Pennsylvania have discovered a new chiral property of silicon. They have demonstrated this property in a silicon-based photonic device that is sensitive to the spin of photons in laser light shone onto one of its electrodes.
Scientists at the Argonne Leadership Computing Facility (ALCF) have identified a material that demonstrates superlubricity at the macroscale. Computer simulations using the Mira supercomputer have helped advance the design for a near-frictionless material.
A research team has developed a new hybrid photocatalyst that utilizes visible light to break down BPAs. This catalyst could be used for safe disposal of BPAs and other similar materials, and for treating water supplies.
Associate Professor Jiaxing Huang of Northwestern Engineering has developed a stable proton-conducting system using a stack of clay sheets. This is a cost-effective method and the main ingredient, clay in commonly available.
Researchers at the Department of Energy's SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory have tested a new material design that enhances the ability of inexpensive solar panels to collect solar energy and release it in the form of electricity.
