A team of researchers in Spain have developed a method to generate a powerful magnetic field by intercalating lead atoms on a graphene sheet. The team included researchers from IMDEA Nanoscience, the University of the Basque Country, the Madrid Institute of Materials Science (CSIC) and the Autonomous University of Madrid.
Materials scientists at Cornell University have developed highly effective “sponges” that can trap carbon and help cut down on greenhouse gases. Carbon capture is gaining momentum in the world’s fight against global warming. Carbon capture involves trapping carbon dioxide chemically before it gets released to the atmosphere. However, most methods are inefficient, corrosive and toxic.
A research team from the University of Las Vegas has provided more insight into Bridgmanite, the most abundant mineral on Earth.
Porvair Sciences low profile 96-well deep well plate achieves a storage volume of 1.1ml / well in a height of just 27 mm enabling more plates to be stacked or stored in a given space.
A research team from Qatar University and North Carolina State University has collaborated to develop a new high-entropy metal alloy, which is characterized by a higher strength-to-weight ratio when compared to other nanocrystalline alloys.
Scientists at the University College London (UCL) have used supercomputer simulations to develop a ‘virtual lab’ for designing new nanocomposite materials. James Suter, Peter Coveney and Deren Groen based in UCL’s Centre for Computational Science have collaborated to develop the ‘virtual lab’.
Researchers belonging to the University of Pittsburgh, Swanson School of Engineering, have led a study to explore the functioning of catalysts at the nanoscale level using novel computer simulations.
Researchers at the Vienna University of Technology have revealed that the missing iron atoms in Magnetite’s (Fe3O4) sub-surface layer govern its properties. "It turns out that the surface of Fe3O4 is not Fe3O4 at all, but rather Fe11O16," says Professor Ulrike Diebold, head of the metal-oxide-research group at TU Wien (Vienna).
University of Michigan scientists have discovered a number of properties of the compound samarium hexaboride, which may pave the way for next-generation electronics and quantum computers.
An international team of researchers including physicists from the Max Planck Institute for the Structure and Dynamics of Matter in Hamburg have presented a possible mechanism for superconductivity at room temperature.
