Chemical warfare agents (CWAs) can currently not be degraded by materials designed for protecting soldiers against them. The carbon-based materials can only...
Optical quantum computers could potentially be used for quantum simulation of highly complex systems, safe data encryption and ultrafast calculation of huge...
The easiest way to control light propagation is by using mirrors. Mirrors are normally relatively big and are made up of a huge number of atoms. Prof. Julien...
Research into fabrics that can generate electricity from physical movement has been ongoing for a number of years. A new fabric that can harvest energy from...
Nano-sized fish that are remotely controlled and able to swim in liquids when a magnetic field is applied have been developed by a combined team of researchers...
Scientist are constantly striving to study cells at a better resolution to understand their function better. Scientists at The University of Texas in Austin...
In a study that was led by Rice University scientists, solid materials were created by welding flakes of graphene together. The team believes that the...
Graphene has many properties that researchers would love to use in various applications. It is strong and stable and conducts both heat and electricity...
