Researchers developed a new method for designing large-scale metasurfaces that uses techniques of machine intelligence to generate designs automatically. The method will enable new metasurface designs that can make an impact on virtual or augmented reality, self-driving cars, and machine vision for embarked systems and satellites.
Researchers have mapped how energy flows in organic solar cells, something that previously had been unknown. The results can contribute to more efficient solar cells.
The antibiotic resistance crisis has been ascribed to the overuse and misuse of these medications, as well as a lack of motivation to develop new drugs. In the field of nanotechnology, a variety of innovative materials are being studied to evaluate their potential applications as antimicrobial agents. Recently, researchers have shown that boron nitride nanosheets as a nano-antibacterial agent displays antibiotic-like activities and BN nanosheets were found to show potent antibacterial ...
The market for expensive fabrication methods in electronics manufacturing could soon dry up after a high-performance material was created via solution processing.
Harnessing the power of phase-change materials, researchers have demonstrated how reconfigurable metasurfaces - artificial materials with extraordinary optical properties - are crucial to the future of nanotechnology.
