Adhesives for biomedical applications can be detached with light Posted: 14 Dec 2018 09:18 AM PST Pulling off a little plastic bandage may soon get a lot less painful. Researchers have developed a new type of adhesive that can strongly adhere wet materials -- such as hydrogel and living tissue -- and be easily detached with a specific frequency of light. The adhesives could be used to attach and painlessly detach wound dressings, transdermal drug delivery devices, and wearable robotics. |
Quantum chemical calculations on quantum computers Posted: 14 Dec 2018 08:08 AM PST A new quantum algorithm has been implemented for quantum chemical calculations such as Full-CI on quantum computers without exponential/combinatorial explosion, giving exact solutions of Schroedinger Equations for atoms and molecules, for the first time. |
How complexity science can quickly detect climate record anomalies Posted: 14 Dec 2018 08:07 AM PST When making sense of the massive amount of information packed into an ice core, scientists face a forensic challenge: how best to separate the useful information from the corrupt. Tools from information theory, a branch of complexity science, can quickly flag which segments, in over a million data points, require further investigation. |
A young star caught forming like a planet Posted: 14 Dec 2018 06:38 AM PST Astronomers have captured one of the most detailed views of a young star taken to date, and revealed an unexpected companion in orbit around it. |
Shrinking objects to the nanoscale Posted: 13 Dec 2018 11:21 AM PST Researchers have invented a new way to fabricate nanoscale 3D objects of nearly any shape. They can also pattern the objects with a variety of useful materials, including metals, semiconducting quantum dots, and DNA. |
Scientists maximize the effectiveness of platinum in fuel cells Posted: 13 Dec 2018 11:15 AM PST Scientists have identified a new catalyst that uses only about a quarter as much platinum as current technology by maximizing the effectiveness of the available platinum. |
Machine learning to speed chemical discoveries, reduce waste Posted: 13 Dec 2018 11:15 AM PST Researchers have combined artificial neural networks with infrared thermal imaging to control and interpret chemical reactions with new precision and speed. Novel microreactors allow chemical discoveries to take place quickly and with far less environmental waste than standard large-scale reactions. The system can reduce the decision-making process about certain chemical manufacturing processes from one year to a matter of weeks, saving tons of chemical waste and energy in the process. |
