Now there is definitive, experimental proof that at the nanoscale, the notion of multiple thin materials with distinct vibrations no longer holds. If the materials are thin, their atoms arrange identically, so that their vibrations are similar and present everywhere.
A peacock's colors are visible to the naked eye for reasons that are completely different than why we see them in paint. Using nature's approach to create dyes and colors can result in non-toxic substances.
Two of the main drawbacks of using tin (Sn)-based metal halide perovskites (MHPs) in thin-film transistors have been simultaneously solved by an innovative hybrid 2D/3D structure. This will help unlock the potential of environmentally benign Sn-based MHPs in CMOS technology, paving the way for flexible and printable electronic devices.
Researchers review the potential of organic electrochemical transistors in in vivo bioelectronic devices, which are devices suitable to be used within a living organism.
In a landmark discovery, researchers have realised the non-contact manipulation of liquid metal. The metals can be controlled to move in any direction, and manipulated into unique, levitated shapes such as loops and squares by using a small voltage and a magnet.
