Researchers show how it is possible to obtain mechanical nanoresonators from 3D printing with figures of merit such as quality factor, published stability, mass sensitivity and strength comparable to those of silicon resonators.
The project 'Attosecond Charge Carrier Dynamics at Nanoscale Interfaces' is making processes visible that are far too small and too fast for the human eye to detect.
Researchers have devised a method of taking ordinary textile made of a cotton/polyester blend and turning the fabric into sensors that measure electrical impulses generated from muscle movement.
Researchers have developed an ultra-stable amorphous Ta2O5/C nanocomposite with a hollow multishelled structure for solar evaporation, which can improve the efficiency of water purification.
The novel use of electric arcs, which are mainly used in electric welding, resulted in the development of an original technology that can produce cheap, and high-performance, cobalt-based single-atom catalysts at a commercial scale.
An international research team has invented a 'smart' window material that controls heat transmission without blocking views, which could help cut the energy required to cool and heat buildings.
