Researchers from Sandia National Laboratories have identified a big hurdle to progressing solid-state lithium-ion battery performance in small electronics: the movement of lithium ions across battery interfaces.
Scientists have created a water cloaking concept hinged on electromagnetic forces that has the ability to eliminate the wake of an object, thereby considerably minimizing its drag while at the same time assisting it in evading detection.
Just visualize: An optical lens so powerful that it allows users to view features the size of a small virus on a living cell’s surface in its natural environment.
Researchers from the Department of Electrical and Electronic Information Engineering and the Electronics-Inspired Interdisciplinary Research Institute (EIIRIS) at Toyohashi University of Technology have created an ultrastretchable bioprobe employing Kirigami designs.
For more than six and a half decades, niobium boride (NbB) has been regarded a typical example of a superconducting material. This presumption has been noted down in manuals related to physics of condensed matter and scientific articles journals, and has at present been challenged in a research carried out by scientists from the University of São Paulo (USP), Brazil, and from San Diego State University, United States.
Following the starting signal, two electrons speed off in opposite directions. The one that wins the race is hardly seven attoseconds (7x10-18 seconds) ahead. It has been impossible to measure the difference till now as it is very small. However, that difference is brought about by chirality, a hallmark of molecules responsible for emitting electrons.
A team of researchers from the Lomonosov Moscow State University’s Faculty of Physics discovered a stretching of acicular diamond crystallites under an electric field action.
How a material breaks is one of the vital properties scientists consider when designing layered composites that mimic those discovered in nature. Rice University engineers have developed a method to decode the interactions between materials and the structures they form and this can help increase their stiffness, toughness, strength, and fracture strain.
Insulating materials were assumed to be "boring" materials, for decades, from an electronics point of view, since electrons are considered to be immobile and do not have the potential to contribute to electrical conduction.
Earlier this year, a technique involving moderately high temperatures, high pressures, and a small amount of glassy carbon as starting material was used to synthesize amorphous diamond for the first time.
