Measurement of Tiny Amounts of Heavy Metals in Baby Food Samples
Helium 'balloons' offer new path to control complex materials
Inserting helium atoms (visualized as a red balloon) into a crystalline film (gold) allowed Oak Ridge National Laboratory researchers to...
Building a better semiconductor: Research led by Michigan State University could someday lead to the development of new and improved semiconductors
MSU researchers have found that by shooting an ultrafast laser pulse into a material, it can change its properties, a process that can lead...
Green Chemistry Methods Used in Iran to Produce Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles
U.S. Engineers Develop Ballistic Wallpaper
U.S. Troops often use abandoned masonry, brick or cinderblock structures for defensive purposes instead of building their own or digging foxholes.
Buckle up for fast ionic conduction
ETH researchers engineered free-standing ceramic membranes for so-called micro energy converters. The strain patterns of these membranes...
Nanoparticles naturally fall into left- and right-handed versions
These are levorotatory and dextrorotatory quantum dots with left and right chiral defects.
A protective shield for sensitive catalysts: Hydrogels block harmful oxygen
With a novel hydrogel, sensitive catalysts can be protected from oxygen molecules (red) which could irreversibly damage the catalysts. The...
