Metals typically soften as they expand when exposed to heat, but a research team directed by a City University of Hong Kong (CityU) scholar and other scientists have discovered a one-of-a-kind super-elastic alloy that can preserve its stiffness even upon being heated to 1,000 K (726.85 °C) or above, with almost zero energy dissipation.
Rice University researchers have arrived at a possible solution to deal with rare earth elements (REE) that are hard to get and hard to recycle.
A Skoltech professor and his colleagues from Germany have designed a very small and flat antenna for receiving and transmitting terahertz signals.
Converting carbon dioxide (CO2) and ethane-;an underutilized component of natural gas-;into things we need would be a great way to put a potent greenhouse gas and an unused reservoir of hydrocarbons to work. But driving such reactions specifically toward one desired product or another can be a challenge.
Perovskite materials are low-cost, solution-processable semiconductors that can absorb and convert solar energy with extraordinarily high efficiencies, making them promising material for use in applications such as photovoltaic solar cells - if the material can be made stable and efficient.
Hydrogen is considered a vital component of the energy transition: it can be produced from solar or wind power and therefore stores green energy in form of an environmentally friendly energy carrier, providing energy also at night and during periods of calm winds. Hydrogen also acts as a climate-neutral fuel for fuel-cell cars and trucks, enabling greater ranges than battery-powered vehicles.
Used primarily to make customized machine parts, medical implants, knickknacks and other plastic objects, 3D printers are now branching out into the kitchen, promising new flavors, shapes and textures that could someday delight the most discriminating foodies.
Solar harnessing devices require optimized, high-performance materials to ensure they are as efficient as possible.
