Joshua Zide and his team at the University of Delaware are taking a new approach to materials, making metallic nanoparticles separately from films and then incorporating them. It turns semiconductors into nanocomposites with different properties and new applications.
Textbook models will need to be re-drawn after a team of researchers found that water molecules at the surface of salt water are organised differently than previously thought.
The researchers have addressed challenges in data retention and endurance of these devices by developing a silver-dispersive chalcogenide thin film.
Researchers move a step closer to making conventional optoelectronic devices more lightweight and flexible.
Chulalongkorn University Center of Excellence on Petrochemical and Materials Technology (PETROMAT) and Archanawat Co., Ltd., signed an MOU on research and development of plastic packaging innovations.
Researchers have taken the first steps toward finding liquid solvents that may someday help extract critical building materials from lunar and Martian-rock dust, an important piece in making long-term space travel possible.
In an AI-based exploration of 160 billion organic molecules, Argonne National Laboratory scientists identified about 40 liquid hydrogen carriers that could one day fuel cars, trucks, buses, trains and ships and generate energy for consumers.
RUDN University professor and colleagues from Italy, Canada, and Turkey built a deep neural network that predicts the strength of composite materials after processing with almost 100% accuracy.
The convergence of artificial intelligence, cloud, and high-performance computing to accelerate scientific discovery is the focus of a multi-year collaboration between Microsoft and PNNL.
Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL) have developed a new theoretical model explaining one way to make black silicon, an important material used in solar cells.
Mycelial fibers, the fibrous cells found in fruiting mushroom bodies, have gained momentum as a sustainable material for making leather and packaging owing to their excellent formability.
Scientists at ORNL have developed a technique for recovering and recycling critical materials that has garnered special recognition from a peer-reviewed materials journal and received a new phase of funding for research and development.
Developed by University of Wisconsin–Madison engineers, the new material — a vertically aligned carbon nanotube foam—can dissipate an enormous amount of rotational kinetic energy from an impact.
Conventional computer processors have pretty much maxed out their “clock speeds” — a measurement of how fast they can toggle on and off — due to limitations of electronic switching.
With the rise in machine learning applications and artificial intelligence, it's no wonder that more and more scientists and researchers are turning to supercomputers. Supercomputers are commonly used for making predictions with advanced modeling and simulations. This can be applied to climate research, weather forecasting, genomic sequencing, space exploration, aviation engineering and more.
A newly developed, highly conductive copper wire could find applications in the electric grid, as well as in homes and businesses.
As industrial computing needs grow, the size and energy consumption of the hardware needed to keep up with those needs grows as well.
High-entropy alloys (HEAs) have potential uses in applications involving severe wear and tear, extreme temperatures, radiation, and high stress, but HEAs made using additive manufacturing often have poor ductility. Scientists have now used laser-based additive manufacturing to form stronger and more ductile HEAs.
Materials with enhanced thermal conductivity are critical for the development of advanced devices to support applications in communications, clean energy and aerospace. But in order to engineer materials with this property, scientists need to understand how phonons, or quantum units of the vibration of atoms, behave in a particular substance.
