The discovery that butterfly wings have scales that act as tiny solar collectors has led scientists in China and Japan to design a more efficient solar cell that could be used for powering homes, businesses, and other applications in the future.
Quantum dots have the potential to bring many good things into the world: efficient solar power, targeted gene and drug delivery, solid-state lighting and advances in biomedical imaging among them.
But they may pose ...
BASF's
research units are its pulsating lifelines. The worldwide Verbund of creative
thinkers is constantly producing new ideas and projects, driving forward the
company even in economically difficult times.
Air Products today announced it has signed a turnkey gas supply contract to provide liquid bulk and specialty gases, related gas distribution equipment, and engineering services to Gadir Solar at its new silicon thin-fil...
Thin film solar cells, based on non-toxic, abundant and air-stable silicon (Si) will probably, based on forecasts, dominate the photovoltaic market in the future and thus replace bulk Si from its leading position. This p...
Structured
Materials Industries, Inc. (SMI) announces today that it has opened its
application lab facilities for the MOCVD growth of ZnO based films for transparent
contact work as used with LEDs and photovoltaics, as well as ZnO films for transparent
and power transistors.
Microfluidics has filed for a patent on its Microfluidics Reaction Technology (MRT), which will enable companies and research organizations to develop and manufacture smaller-sized nanoparticles than previously possible ...
While exploring the properties of polymer formation, a team of scientists
at the National Institute for
Standards and Technology (NIST) has made a fundamental discovery about
these materials that could improve methods of creating the stable crystalline
films that are widely used in electronics applications-and also offer insight
into a range of other phenomena.
The completed renovation project of the Innovation Center at the DuPont
Experimental Station in Wilmington, Del., in mid-2008, included the installation
of a solar energy system which was funded in part by the State of Delaware’s
Green Energy Program. The photovoltaic (PV) panels of the system, which are
located on the roof of the building, collect solar energy and convert it to
provide 30 kilowatts of power each day. It provides enough electricity to power
all of the lights in the building. The system is expected to have a useful life
of at least 25 years.
Arizona State University researchers Hao Yan and Yan Liu imagine and assemble intricate structures on a scale almost unfathomably small. Their medium is the double-helical DNA molecule, a versatile building material offe...
