Liquid crystals show promise for innovative biomedical applications like drug delivery, bioimaging, tissue engineering, implantable devices, biosensing, and wearables. The unique properties of these dynamic materials at the interface of solid and liquid could improve human health.
Scientists for the first time have witnessed pieces of metal crack, then fuse back together without any human intervention, overturning fundamental scientific theories in the process.
Researchers discovered that, by stacking a sheet of graphene onto bulk graphite at a small twist angle, exotic properties present at the graphene-graphite interface can bleed down into the graphite itself.
