Full-color CPL is achieved by doping different quantum dots (QDs) into reconfigurable blue phase liquid crystal elastomers (BPLCE). Unlike with CPL in the cholesteric phase, BPLCE induces opposite CPL signal, entirely independent of photonic bandgaps (PBGs) and yielding a higher glum value even without matching between PBGs and emission bands of QDs.
Something about city life seems to suit powdery mildew, a fungal disease that afflicts many plants, including leaves of garden vegetables and roadside weeds. A new study from biologists at Washington University in St. Louis finds that plants in the city of St. Louis had significantly more mildew than those in the suburbs or countryside.
The trend towards hyperscale cloud infrastructures is creating powerful global gatekeepers of computational capability. We must understand the geopolitical implications.
A new study conducted by VectorBuilder, a global leader in plasmid design and gene delivery solutions, has unveiled alarming rates of errors in lab-made plasmids worldwide.
Argonne and University Mohammed VI Polytechnic signed a memorandum of understanding to establish a collaboration that will support energy storage, renewable energy, high-performance computing and clean water innovation.
In August 2021, an earthquake struck southwest Haiti, killing thousands of people and leaving more than half a million seeking help. Assessment of this disaster and its response can serve as a model for evaluating future disasters and making life-saving improvements, according to new research from the University of Notre Dame.
Organic farming can support soil microorganisms that promote plant defenses and reduce insect pests. But not all organic practices are equally beneficial for soil microbes, and it’s important to understand farmer motivations in order to encourage the adoption of microbiome-supportive efforts. A new study from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign and Cornell University looks at how organic farmers’ beliefs about the microbiome influence their soil management practices.
Popular web browser extensions designed to protect user privacy and block online ads are falling short, according to NYU Tandon School of Engineering researchers, who are proposing new measurement methodologies to better uncover and quantify these shortcomings.
University of Utah biologists are unlocking the mystery of how bacteria harness viruses to wipe out the competition. Answers could lead to the development of alternatives to broad-spectrum antibiotics.
A record 40 students on the path to achieving doctorates in fields that emphasize the use of computing and mathematics are now being welcomed into the U.S. Department of Energy Computational Science Graduate Fellowship (DOE CSGF) program.
Humans can learn a lot from nature, especially when dealing with climate change and other environmental issues. A clean energy future relies on us reducing our dependency on fossil fuels, breaking down waste, and storing atmospheric carbon. Biofuels made from decomposing living things or biological waste are a potential alternative to fossil fuels.
Cole-Parmer, an Antylia Scientific company, is pleased to reintroduce peristaltic pumps to enhance its industry-leading line of fluid handling solutions.
Phani Ratna Vanamali Marthi, an R&D associate in the Power Systems Resilience group at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory, has been elevated to the grade of senior member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, or IEEE, the world’s largest technical professional organization.
Aimed at undergraduate and graduate students, Argonne’s annual “Intro to AI-Driven Science on Supercomputers” training series is helping to grow a new generation of AI-ready researchers.
A pivotal study has pinpointed a novel bHLH gene, MabHLH28, as a key regulator of banana fruit ripening. This gene significantly influences the softening process by upregulating the expression of softening-related genes, either independently or in synergy with MaWRKY49/111.
A pivotal study reveals how auxin and sucrose metabolism regulate bulbil initiation in Lilium lancifolium. By manipulating auxin levels and examining key sucrose metabolism genes, researchers found that low auxin concentrations enhance bulbil formation.
