Solid-state physicists and materials chemists are now in excellent “shape” to expand and accelerate their explorations of the science of topological materials for a wide range of possible applications.
Results for "graphene"
Dual aluminum-nitrogen battery that stores energy and fixes nitrogen
A rechargeable aluminum-nitrogen battery serves the dual purpose of not only storing and retrieving energy, but also being able to fix its nitrogen stream as ammonia.
Mussels and chameleons inspire a new type of sensor
Scientists design a stretchable, adhesive, self-healing material that can change color as a result of movement for real-time motion sensors.
This month in pictures: June
Here, we take a look at some of the most intriguing scientific images published in June 2020.
Affordable seismic dampers for residential and commercial buildings
Novel graphene‐reinforced elastomeric isolators are a viable, low‐cost alternative to reinforce buildings against earthquake damage.
Using computational screens to identify 2D materials for battery anodes
Computational screens allow researchers to efficiently determine how different elemental combinations can alter material properties to quickly identify 2D materials for next generation battery anodes.
Helping robots think like humans
UCF researchers develop a device that mimics brain cells used for human vision. The invention may help to one day make robots that can think like humans.
Smart clothes go green: The next revolution in textile electronics
Researchers create green biocomposites for flexible, wearable electronic devices.
A Knittable and Washable Conducting Yarn for Functional Textiles
Researchers have found a way to produce advanced functional fabrics while retaining the wearability and durability of everyday fabrics.
Abstract Images: Producing the Perfect Picture
Abstract images for scientific papers are often cluttered with illegible details, sacrificing attractiveness and reducing the value of this visual “hook”.
