Clouds of supercooled atoms offer highly sensitive rotation sensors and tests of quantum mechanics. • Email to a friend • Natural graphite, used as the precursor for graphene oxide production, is a highly ordered crystalline inorganic material, which is believed to be formed by decay of organic matter. It is extremely thermodynamically stable and resistant to be converted to the organic-like metastable graphite oxide. • Email to a friend • Researchers have developed novel ternary nanocomposites by electrostatic spinning technology, which improved the performance of supercapacitors electrode materials. • Email to a friend • Scientists recently developed molecular films that can measure the operating temperature of electronic components on a nanometric scale. These patented temperature-sensitive molecules have the distinctive quality of being extremely stable, even after millions of uses. • Email to a friend • An international team of researchers has succeeded in forming and studying self-assembled interlocked rings called 'nano-poly[n]catanenes' that contain just one molecular ingredient. • Email to a friend • Scientists have managed to draw at high resolution and speed, local patterns in organic semiconductor films used in optoelectronic and photonic applications. The new method enables the patterning of material characteristics and concomitant final properties, including molecular conformation, orientation, crystallinity and composition. • Email to a friend • |
