Developing new materials can involve a dizzying amount of trial and error for different configurations and elements.

Nanoscale electron transfer (ET) in solids is fundamental to the development of multifunctional materials. However, ET in solids is not yet clearly understood. Now, researchers achieved a direct ...

When materials become just one atom thick, melting no longer follows the familiar rules. Instead of jumping straight from solid to liquid, an unusual in-between state emerges, where atomic positions ...

Researchers have developed a groundbreaking method of storing and handling valuable biological materials that removes the limitations of refrigerated storage. The novel method has potential ...

Normally, when liquids solidify, their molecules become locked in place, making it much harder for ions to move and leading to a steep decrease in ionic conductivity. Now, scientists have synthesized ...

Expert analysis compares Donut Lab’s solid-state pitch to pseudo-capacitor behavior and real cycle life data, helping you spot red flags fast.

Electrically heated elements turn from solids to liquids to provide flexibility to robotic building blocks. We use cookies to improve your experience on our site. By using our site, you consent to ...

An introductory course focused on the new and existing materials that are crucial for mitigating worldwide anthropogenic CO2 emissions and associated greenhouse gases. Emphasis will be placed on how ...

Engineers Week – an event first celebrated in 1951 by the National Society of Professional Engineers – took place on February 20 th-26 th, 2022. The theme of this year’s event was “Reimagining the ...

Hydrogen, a clean energy source, requires a highly reliable and safe storage system, which is currently lacking. Layered hydrogen silicane (L-HSi) is a promising, safe, lightweight, and ...
