Researchers from the Stanford Institute for Materials & Energy Sciences and the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory are challenging the prevailing view that the rapid charging and draining of lithium ion batteries is damaging and have discovered a new way to think about battery degradation.
Researchers from the University of Vienna have used single-layer graphene with silicon atoms embedded into its lattice in order to study the manipulation of single atoms.
A team of researchers from Texas A&M University have revealed the work-hardening and plasticity properties of twinned aluminium with incoherent twin boundaries using an in situ nanoindentation technique.
Researchers at the University of Manchester have discovered that graphene paint, which is a solution of graphene oxide, could provide a non-corrosive, chemically resistant, and impermeable coating for applications in a wide range of industries.
Scientists at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory have explained the complex behaviour of polystyrene using its Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) X-ray laser. Polystyrene is a widely used polymer, namely in the manufacture of plastic cups and packing foams.
Scientists have collaborated to develop a molecular rectifier that can reduce the size of chip components to the size of molecules. Two unusual forms of carbon were joined to create the rectifier. One form of the carbon was like a diamond, while the other was like a soccer ball.
A European research team has successfully synthesized germanene, a material considered to be a 'cousin of graphene.' Germanene is a 2D material that is anticipated to demonstrate remarkable optical and electrical properties. It is considered to hold significant potential for a wide range of applications in the electronics industry.
Researchers from Tohoku University have developed a new method to produce defect-free graphene nanoribbons (GNRs). The technique produces GNRs with periodic zigzag-edge regions by using a bottom-up fabrication method. The length distribution and growth direction of the GNR are controlled by this method.
An innovative 3D-printed, drivable car is to be printed and assembled during The International Manufacturing Technology Show 2014 (IMTS 2014). The vehicle, named ‘Strati’ will be driven out on September 13, 2014.
Researchers at the University of Adelaide have used a new nanomaterial, known as a metal organic framework, for studying crystal structures using X-rays without initially crystallizing the substance.
