Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Chemical Technology ICT are working together with the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology KIT to develop a new cooling concept that will enable polymers to be used as motor housing materials.
The mechanism involved when transition metal dichalcogenides on metallic substrates change from the semiconducting 1H-phase to the quasi-metallic 1T’-phase has been discovered by a team of National University of Singapore (NUS) researchers.
FIRST Light Fusion, the University of Oxford spin out researching energy generation via inertial fusion, has successfully completed building and testing of its unique pulsed power device, dubbed Machine 3.
Solid materials are actually not quite as solid as they seem. Generally, each atom usually vibrates around a specific position in the material. Most theoretical models that aim to define solid materials are based on the notion that the atoms keep their positions and do not travel great distances from them.
A cross-coupling reaction is usually carried out in an organic solvent, resulting in the production of a huge amount of solvent waste, which is often hazardous to the environment. Hokkaido University researchers, in Japan, have developed a new approach making room for the execution of more environmentally friendly solvent-free solid-state cross-coupling processes using mechanochemistry.
For the first time, scientists have successfully imaged “edge conduction” in a recently discovered 2D quantum material and topological insulator called monolayer tungsten ditelluride, or WTe2.
A study team led by Hokkaido University in Japan has created a porous material that is extremely stable and changes color when exposed to acid vapor.
Acrylics are an extremely varied and useful group of chemicals used in all types of products, from nail polish to diapers. Presently, a team of scientists from the University of Connecticut (UConn) and ExxonMobil explain a new process for producing them.
Compared to commercial platinum catalysts, a unique ruthenium-based catalyst created at the University of California, Santa Cruz has exhibited distinctly better performance in alkaline water electrolysis for hydrogen production.
The broad family of compounds—perovskites—shares a specific crystal structure. These compounds have attracted a significant amount of interest as new, promising solar-cell materials, thanks to their flexibility, low cost, and comparatively easy manufacturing process.
