MIT researchers have carried out a new study into the exact features of a metallic structure which prevents embrittlement in the presence of hydrogen.
MIT researchers have developed a new technique capable of producing highly detailed images of single proteins irrespective of the level of complexity in the structure and, more importantly, without the need for crystallisation.
Xavier University has opened a MakerBot Innovation Center on its campus. The grand opening event was on 4th February, 2014.
A research team at the University of Maryland (UMD) and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has successfully determined the phenomenon of pole shift in thin cobalt films on the largest scale yet. Thin cobalt films appear to change their poles, which normally does not occur without an external magnetic field. The study was published in Physical Review B.
Researchers from universities in Japan and China along with the Virginia Commonwealth University researchers have developed a new carbon variant - penta-graphene similar to a pentagonal pattern of tiles paved in the streets of Cairo. The material is a thin sheet of pure carbon with distinct structural properties.
A research team from the University of Manchester and University of Sheffield has illustrated that 2D ‘designer materials’ can be developed to create transparent, flexible and high-efficiency electronic devices. The team headed by Nobel Laureate Sir Kostya Novoselov accomplished this feat by constructing LEDs at an atomic level. Their findings have been published in the scientific journal Nature Materials.
Scientists at the Rice University have suggested that a sinuous thread of odd rings at the boundary of two graphene sheets could provide more strength and semiconducting properties, which can be predicted.
Scientists at the University of Chicago have experimentally observed a quantum phenomenon known as geometric scaling in ultracold, triatomic three-atom molecules. The gigantic three-atom molecules fit inside each other like a set of Russian nesting dolls.
Scientists at Stanford University have discovered that when perovskite, a crystalline material, is stacked on top of a conventional silicon solar cell, it provides a big boost to the efficiency of the solar cell.
Over the last decade, one of the most potential findings in the field of condensed matter physics is the presence of "topologically protected" electrical conductivity on the surface of certain materials, whose bulk interior behaves as an insulating material, resulting in new potential applications and various unusual electronic states. Most of these phenomena, however, have not yet been studied properly.
