Professors Kostya Novoselov and Andre Geim, who received the Nobel Prize for Physics for their innovative research works to study graphene and its superior properties, have been awarded knighthoods. They have been knighted for ‘Services to Science.’
Graphene has the tendency to stack together to form graphite. A method developed by scientists from the University of Cambridge, DSO National Laboratories and the National University of Singapore (NUS) prevents graphene sheets from re-stacking by bonding alkyl surface chains on them, while maintaining the characteristics of their nano-graphene pockets.
A novel method has been developed by a research team led by Thomas Bein, a Professor at the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universitat Munchen (LMU), and Dr. Markus Lackinger at the Technische Universitat Munchen (TUM) to create superior quality polymer networks utilizing boron acid molecules.
The Solar Atmospheres R&D team has formed a novel hot zone design concept to minimize power losses from the vacuum furnace by 50%. Vacuum furnace engineers have been always concerned about energy losses.
A research team comprising Rawil Fakhrullin and his colleagues has developed a novel method using superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles to supply therapeutic human cells to disease-affected body parts, paving the way for accelerating the utilization of cell therapy wherein stem cells or normal cells are delivered into the body to cure diseases.
The Photovoltaic and Optoelectronic Devices Group at the Universitat Jaume I (UJI) in Spain has developed dye-sensitized solar cells. These cells are also called as dye solar cells (DSC).
The Conference, the world's largest annual laboratory science conference and exposition, will have an estimated 1,000 exhibitors, 2,000 presentations, attendees from more than 90 countries and the attention of the world as new discoveries are unveiled.
Dr. Wong Ka-hing, who serves as Associate Director at the Food Safety and Technology Research Centre (FSTRC) of The Hong Kong Polytechnic University as well as an Assistant Professor at the university’s Department of Applied Biology and Chemical Technology, has used the polysaccharide-protein complex derived from the sclerotium of the African Tiger Milk mushroom to synthesize high-stability selenium nanoparticles that are capable of decelerating the breast cancer cell growth by apoptosis.
Apache, a Houston-based producer of gas and oil for the domestic Western Australia market, has declared that the company will acquire a 65% interest in Burrup Holdings and plans to develop a technical ammonium nitrate (TAN) facility in the Burrup Peninsula locality of Western Australia that is to be developed by an association including Burrup Holdings.
Max-Born-Institute researchers have followed electrons in real-time to study the rapid onset of electrical resistance in semiconductors.
