“”Rock-chair” Li-ion battery (LIB) was discovered in the late 1970s and commercialized in 1991 by Sony, which has become the priority way we store portable energy today. To honor the contribution for “creating a rechargeable world”, the 2019 Nobel Prize …
“A few months ago, we revealed Xbox Series X, our fastest, most powerful console ever, designed for a console generation that has you, the player, at its center. When it is released this holiday season, Xbox Series X will set …
“The 3D-printed thrust chamber assembly of the methane-fuelled M10 rocket engine has passed its first series of hot firing tests. The M10 engine will power the upper stage of future Vega evolutions from 2025. “These test results are encouraging, confirming …
“Microlaunchers are an alternative to conventional launch vehicles. Able to carry payloads of up to 350 kilograms, these midsized transport systems are designed to launch small satellites into space. Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Material and Beam Technology IWS …
“Uranium is not always the same: depending on whether this chemical element is released by the civil nuclear industry or as fallout from nuclear weapon tests, the ratio of the two anthropogenic, i.e. man-made, uranium isotopes 233U and 236U …
“An international team of scientists have discovered a new material that can be 3D printed to create tissue-like vascular structures. In a new study published today in Nature Communications, led by Professor Alvaro Mata at the University of Nottingham and …
“Scientists have made a breakthrough in the search for a new, sustainable permanent magnet. Most permanent magnets are made from alloys of rare earth metals - but the mining and processing of these materials produces toxic by-products, leading to ecological challenges …
News Bristol discovery is significant step toward developing electronics for extreme energy efficiency
“Researchers at the University of Bristol have come up with a new type of nanoelectromechanical relay to enable reliable, high-temperature, non-volatile memory. The work, which is reported in Nature Communications, was carried out in collaboration with the University of Southampton …
“Researchers have generated a wide range of colours from a single laser after discovering a new process for achieving so-called ‘supercontinuum generation’. Supercontinuum generation is when intense laser light of one colour travels within a material, like glass, and broadens …
“Physicists use extreme infrared laser pulses to reveal frozen electron waves in magnetite. Magnetite is the oldest magnetic material known to humans, yet researchers are still mystified by certain aspects of its properties. For example, when the temperature is lowered …
