Researchers enhanced a chromium-based MOF's drug delivery capabilities by treating it with high-concentration acetic acid, increasing its pore size and surface area, resulting in greater ibuprofen and chemotherapy drug retention.
Physicists propose a novel way to create photoconductive circuits, where the circuit is directly patterned onto a glass surface with femtosecond laser light. The new technology may one day be useful for harvesting energy, while remaining transparent to light and using a single material.
Scientists leverage 'living' chemistry to 3D print intricate structures with unprecedented reversible shape and property changes over time, exhibiting complex, lifelike adaptation.
Scientists have developed and simulated a new energy-efficient way to generate highly focused and finely controlled X-rays that are up to a thousand times more intense than those from traditional methods.
Physicists are investigating ageing processes in materials. For the first time, they have measured the ticking of an internal clock in glass. When evaluating the data, they discovered a surprising phenomenon.
Researchers innovated a new manufacturing process for high-quality oxide films. This process facilitates efficient patterning at lower temperatures and has successfully been used to create non-volatile resistive random access memory (RRAM).
A team of researchers have opened new possibilities in bioanalytical application by developing a microfluidic device that allows for the precise and efficient manipulation of fluids in three-dimensional microscale environments.
