For the first time, researchers have demonstrated reversible twisting and untwisting of nanoscale cobalt-based helices, introducing transformable 'elastic crystals' with wide applications.
Researchers have developed efficient terahertz radiation sources by exploiting the innate layered anisotropy of conductive metal oxides, enabling new capabilities for integrated terahertz technologies.
Researchers invented a transparent material that, like invisible ink, can mark authentic goods with a special pattern or signature that only emerges under certain kinds of light.
A nano-thin superbug-slaying material could be integrated into wound dressings and implants to prevent or heal bacterial infections, including 'golden staph'.
