Scientists utilize discarded tea leaves for sustainable and affordable sodium-ion battery anodes to enable renewable energy storage.

Scientists have discovered chemical and molecular fingerprints of the early solar system inside a meteorite that landed in the UK.

Researchers proposed and successfully demonstrated an all-electric approach to sensing nanoscale vector magnetic fields. The key focus of their work was achieving magnetic sensing using a single device with entirely electrical operation.

This new color creation method involves scattering light around tiny, spherical silicon crystals, producing non-fading, angle-independent structural colors that can be printed.

Scientists shed light on hybrid plasmonic nanomaterials with tunable properties, including clock-inspired designs featuring magnesium nano-rotamers.

Researchers demonstrate the growth of cobalt nanoclusters on two-dimensional copper surfaces using an array of ring-shaped crown ether molecules.

A new technique pushes back some of the limits of the infrared imaging of rare-earth doped nanoparticles.

Scientists have discovered a first-of-its-kind material, a 3D crystalline metal in which quantum correlations and the geometry of the crystal structure combine to frustrate the movement of electrons and lock them in place.
