A new paper examines in detail the origin of curvature effects at the nanoscale and illustrates their potential applications in innovative electronic, spintronic and superconducting devices.
Scientists watched atomic-scale dynamics of a nonliving material mimic behavior associated with learning, paving the way for better artificial intelligence.
What determines the durability of high-performance coatings for turbines or highly stressed tools? Surprising results show: It is not material fatigue.
Researchers simplified the process of producing soft microrobots powered by biomolecular motor muscles by 3D-printing the constituent modules, including actuators and grabbers, in situ. This work may lead to significant advances in scalable production and microsurgery.
