“That’s essentially what Vanderbilt University researchers produced after discovering the blueprint for turning the carbon dioxide into the most valuable material ever sold – carbon nanotubes with small diameters. Professor Cary Pint has created a device that can harvest energy …
News Understanding the Generation of Light-Induced Electrical Current in Atomically Thin Nanomaterials
“Scientists demonstrated that scanning photocurrent microscopy—an imaging capability just added to Brookhaven Lab’s Center for Functional Nanomaterials—could provide the optoelectronic information needed to improve the performance of devices for power generation, communications, data storage, and lighting Scientists …
“Team is first to directly image propagation and dynamics of graphene plasmons at very low temperatures; findings could impact optical communications and signal processing As electronic devices and circuits shrink into the nanoscale, the ability to transfer data on a …
“Researchers design 3-D-printed, driverless boats that can provide transport and self-assemble into other floating structures. The future of transportation in waterway-rich cities such as Amsterdam, Bangkok, and Venice — where canals run alongside and under bustling streets and bridges — may include …
“Researchers at Nagoya University find an inorganic semiconductor is brittle when exposed to light, but flexible in the dark Inorganic semiconductors such as silicon are indispensable in modern electronics because they possess tunable electrical conductivity between that of a metal …
“We are pleased to announce the Mbed OS 5.8.5 release is now available. This is the latest patch release based on the feature set that Mbed-OS-5.8 introduces. Summary In this release we have updated: mbed-coap …
“With the aid of the latest, highly precise laboratory methods an international team of scientists with GFZ-participation identified a so far unknown reaction path for minerals in solid natural rocks. Classic examples of mineral reactions are the dissolution of …
“Over the last two decades, scientists have discovered that the optical microscope can be used to detect, track and image objects much smaller than their traditional limit—about half the wavelength of visible light, or a few hundred nanometers. That …
“The first measurement of a subatomic particle’s mechanical property reveals the distribution of pressure inside the proton. Inside every proton in every atom in the universe is a pressure cooker environment that surpasses the atom-crushing heart of a neutron …
“Generating power from the sun isn’t the problem. The technology has been there for decades. Storing that power efficiently, however, has been a challenge. Until now. Generating power from the sun isn’t the problem. The technology has been …
