Over a three-month period, the average car in the U.S. produces one metric ton of carbon dioxide. Multiply that by all the gasoline-powered cars on Earth, and what does that look like- An insurmountable problem.
A new wireless charging system can charge devices placed anywhere within a ring around it. Existing systems transfer power in a specific direction or to a specific position. By providing a donut-shaped charging field, the new system offers a more convenient and reliable design for consumer use.
Over the last 35 years, scientists have investigated a special type of materials called superconductors. When cooled to the correct temperatures, these materials allow electricity to flow without resistance.
In a recent article published in the open-access journal Material, researchers prepared silver (Ag)-doped carbon dots (CD) and proposed the possible development of a fluorescent sensor from the Ag-CDs.

According to Gregory Pavlak, assistant professor of architectural engineering, control mechanisms for heating, ventilation, and air conditioning in buildings follow set parameters to make conditions in a building more comfortable, but what they save on time can reduce efficiency and increase energy costs.
HORSHAM, USA – Companies have long trusted level transmitters to provide reliable and accurate tank levels in many industries, including water and wastewater. Manufacturers differentiate their transmitters by...
Researchers from the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science (HFIPS) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences have come up with a novel solution to address bimetallic traps in high-efficiency perovskite solar cells (PSCs) by employing an anchoring strategy.
The study questions the reason behind gas bubbles in viscoelastic liquids (like polymer and protein solutions) rising so much quicker compared to what is anticipated—an open question with great relevance for industrial production processes.
Prying a mussel from rock, wood, or anything else is tough. The underwater mollusks have a gluey secret that has fascinated researchers for a long time.
The rapid growth in plastic use, waste, and environmental damage in recent decades has facilitated the search for more sustainable alternatives which are repeatedly recyclable and healable. Publishing in ACS Materials Le...
