Engineers have developed a 'thermal switch' made up of compressible graphene foam, that dynamically adjusts to temperatures both inside and outside an electronic device to maintain consistent thermal management.
Scientists discover an inexpensive reaction to exchange light hydrogen for its heavier isotopes using silicon surfaces, paving the way to more durable electronics.
Scientists have revealed the underlying mechanisms of the enhanced evaporation flux through nanochannels and built a quantitative model of the evaporation-driven liquid flow through nanochannels.
Researchers have developed nitrogen-doped fluorescent carbon dots, which are proving a highly effective, multi-mechanism detection tool for iodide and curcumin in complex biological and food samples.
They're roughly the same size as a coronavirus particle, and 1000 times smaller than a human hair, yet newly engineered nanoparticles are punching well above their weight when it comes to treating drug-resistant fungal infections.
Invisibly small carbon nanotubes aligned as fibers and sewn into fabrics become a thermoelectric generator that can turn heat from the sun or other sources into energy.
