“These highly stable metal-organic frameworks could be useful for applications such as capturing greenhouse gases. Materials known as metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have a rigid, cage-like structure that lends itself to a variety of applications, from gas storage to drug delivery …
“Imagine a movie about a rogue employee who breaches security in a company that implants chips inside half of the world’s computers. They embed a Trojan in systems around the globe and hold the world to ransom. This is …
“The scientists designed a special cell in order to observe the transport of lithium-ions between the anode and the cathode in a solid-state Lithium-Sulfur battery. Since lithium can hardly be detected with x-ray methods, HZB physicists Dr. Robert Bradbury and …
“The team discovered a groundbreaking increase in the storage capacity of water-based battery electrodes, an important step in the development of lithium-free batteries. Researchers at Texas A&M University have discovered a 1,000% difference in the storage capacity of …
News Virgin Orbit fails to secure funding, will cease operations and lay off nearly entire workforce
“Virgin Orbit is ceasing operations “for the foreseeable future” after failing to secure a funding lifeline, CEO Dan Hart told employees during an all-hands meeting Thursday afternoon. The company will lay off nearly all of its workforce. “Unfortunately, we’ve …
“Lab researchers drive colloidal quantum dot lasing technology closer to device-ready A Los Alamos National Laboratory team has overcome key challenges toward technologically viable high-intensity light emitters based on colloidal quantum dot technology, resulting in dual-function devices that operate as …
“Here at Arduino we are thrilled to announce a new, revolutionary revision of the iconic UNO board, which will expand the concept of the open-source brand’s most iconic and popular product while providing the maker community with a long-awaited …
“Graphene is the strongest of all materials. On top of that, it is exceptionally good at conducting heat and electrical currents, making it one of the most special and versatile materials we know. For all these reasons, the discovery of …
“Study of the MPI for Extraterrestrial Physics in Garching with participation of the University of Bonn A white dwarf star can explode as a supernova when its mass exceeds the limit of about 1.4 solar masses. A team led …
“New scanning tunneling microscopy method demystifies what electrons are doing on the surface of a compound. Materials typically conduct electricity or insulate against it – so experimental and theoretical physicists have been captivated by a compound called samarium hexaboride (SmB6) that …
