The incorporation of 2D semiconductors in multi-layer, solid-state structures on large scales would allow their integration into functional devices, with exciting potential use in compact, ultra-low energy electronics.
New research results offer exciting opportunities of hot electron harvesting by exploiting carrier-carrier, carrier-phonon and spin-spin interactions in doped quantum dots.
Researchers demonstrated a novel principle of actuation - to transform electrical energy into motion. This actuation mechanism is based on solvation, the interaction between solute and solvent molecules in a solution.
Engineers created thread sensors that can be attached to skin to measure movement in real time, with potential implications for tracking health and performance.
