Berkeley Lab scientists are developing a new way to detect microscopic fractures in materials in the field Light-emitting, four-armed nanocrystals could someday form the basis of an early wa... Read more
The transistor is the most fundamental building block of electronics, used to build circuits capable of amplifying electrical signals or switching them between the 0s and 1s at the heart of... Read more
These are very durable crystals compared to their organic counterparts At first glance, photovoltaic solar panels are brilliant. They’re self-contained, need no fuel and so long as the sun i... Read more
The addition of extremely small crystals to solid electrolyte material has the potential to considerably raise the efficiency of fuel cells. Researchers at TU Delft were the first to documen... Read more
Scientists from Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e), assisted by colleagues from the University of Illinois, have successfully mimicked the process of bone formation in the laboratory.... Read more
Composites are combinations of materials that produce properties inaccessible in any one material. A classic example of a composite is fiberglass — plastic fibers woven with glass to a... Read more
