It's like a magic trick: some objects can pass through an electric ion very quickly without showing holes afterwards. Impossibilities are left at the macroscopic level at the level of...

Just in time for Christmas, a world record was set at DTU. The researchers extracted the material from Rocking Around the Christmas Tree from a 40-micrometer-wide disk. Measuring just 40...

As part of the JST PRESTO Strategic Basic Research Program, Associate Professor Ayumi Ishii of Teikyo University of Science and her team developed a novel near-infrared light sensor that uses...

Scientists at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) have created carbon nanotubes with straight walls and metal sheets that could be useful for energy storage and electronics industries. Vertically aligned carbon nanotubes...

Van der Waals (vdW) magnets and their hetero structures have become a new platform (Interfacial ferromagnetism in 2D antiferromagnetic hetero structures) for exploring strange and surprising magnetic laws. Even so,...

New materials that can harvest and transmit light have exciting potential for technologies ranging from solar cells to televisions and display screens. In a new study, researchers have developed a...

A catalyst, whose properties change in response to external factors such as light and heat, is being studied in many areas as a next-generation energy source. In particular, photosensitive materials...

Researchers at the ETH Zurich have developed a transparent coating (Gold-based heat exchanger for glass) with shiny gold that can convert sunlight into heat. It can be placed on glass...

The research, published in Environmental Science & Technology, showed that most of the microplastics exposed in Auckland's air are small in size, raising concerns about the ability to breathe and...

With the growing interest in carbon neutrality and the worrying situation of extreme temperatures and natural disasters caused by global warming, solar cells will play an important role in the...
