New on-chip device uses exotic light rays in 2D material to detect molecules
Molecules have some sort of fingerprints, unique features that can be used to differentiate them. Each type of molecule, when illuminated...
How can electrons split into fractions of themselves?
MIT physicists have taken a key step toward solving the puzzle of what leads electrons to split into fractions of themselves. Their...
New materials for new applications: trapping single metal atoms in graphene
This article presents a simple and innovative method to create new materials that combine the extraordinary properties of single metal...
New metamaterial with different extension and compression properties than conventional materials
Metamaterials are artificial materials that do not occur in nature. Their components function like atoms in conventional materials but...
Study unlocks mechanisms of liquid-repellent surfaces
Griffith University scientists have made significant strides in understanding and controlling liquid interactions on tiny, advanced...
Physics with a twist: FSU researchers publish new findings on graphene
When it comes to electrically conductive nanomaterials, graphene — stronger and lighter than steel and more conductive than copper — has...
Two hundred times better catalysts thanks to carbon
Precious metals play an important role in the chemical industry as catalysts: With the help of silver, platinum, palladium or other...
Kagome breaks the rules at record breaking temperatures
Using muon spin rotation at the Swiss Muon Source SmS, researchers at PSI have discovered that a quantum phenomenon known as...
When iron meets titanium: Discovery of quasicrystalline-like grain boundary phases in alloys
The interfaces between individual crystals in a material, known as grain boundaries (GBs), play a critical role in dictating the...
Successful development of a perfect diamagnetic conducting polymer
Conducting polymers exhibit a variety of properties in addition to their conductivity. Research has explored their use in light-emitting...
W&M researchers progress in unraveling mysteries of invisible spider web ‘super fibers’
