Researchers designed and manufactured a virus-killing surface that could help control disease spread in hospitals, labs and other high-risk environments. The surface made of silicon is covered in tiny nanospikes that skewer viruses on contact.
Researchers have developed innovative mechanical transistors that combine temperature-responsive materials and switchable structures, enabling complex logic operations and memory storage without electricity, opening up new possibilities for computing and environmental interaction.
Scientist present an unusual quantum Hall effect that was observed on a microscopic device made of the topological insulator material mercury telluride (HgTe).
A team of more than 100 experts from 57 research institutions worldwide is developing a comprehensive roadmap for next-generation printable sensor technologies.
