Scientists have devised a way of fabricating a complex structure, previously found only in nature, to open up new ways for manipulating and controlling light.
The simultaneous recording of height profiles, currents and frictional forces at solid-liquid interfaces allows exciting insights into electrocatalytically active materials.
Scientists have revealed the formation of boron clusters with magic numbers on monolayer borophene and observed the evolution process from monolayer borophene with adsorbed boron clusters to bilayer borophene.
Sientists find that antibody fragments encapsulated in nanomicelles cross the blood-brain barrier and reduce the levels of toxic amyloid beta species in the brain of an Alzheimer's disease model mouse.
A novel transparent heating film made of silver nanowires can be used to fabricate a paper-based silver nanowire film heater. Its film resistance is much lower than that of indium tin oxide.
Due to their considerable efficiency, catalysts made of just a few atoms show great promise in the field of water treatment. In a new study, researchers looked into how to optimize the performance of these catalysts and make them viable for practical use.
Researchers tuned the microstructure of thermoelectric materials by doping the grain boundaries with titanium. This way they were able to achieve optimal low thermal and high electrical conductivity.
Researchers achieved a shape memory effect for the first time with objects that are only a few nanometers in size. This can be used to manufacture tiny machinery and robotic devices on the nanoscale.
Instead of pigment-based colored paint, which requires artificially synthesized molecules, a researcher has developed an alternative way to produce colored paint that is more natural, environmentally friendly and light weight.
Innovative battery researchers have cracked the code to creating real-time 3D images of the promising but temperamental lithium metal battery as it cycles.
