An international research team has developed a material that, when coated on a glass window panel, can effectively self-adapt to heat or cool rooms across different climate zones in the world, helping to cut energy usage.
Researchers describe how nanodiamond-reinforced composite membranes can purify hydrogen from its humid mixtures, making the hydrogen generation processes vastly more efficient and cost-effective.
Researchers have discovered that negative capacitance could lower the energy used in electronics and computing, which represents 8% of global electricity demand.
The trade-off between carrier mobility and stability in amorphous oxide semiconductor-based thin film transistors (TFTs) has been finally overcome in an ingeniously fabricated indium tin zinc oxide TFT. This could pave the way for the design of display technologies that are cheaper than current silicon-based technologies.
