A research team at POSTECH (Pohang University of Science and Technology) has developed a new alloy that maintains its strength and ductility across extreme temperatures ranging from –196 °C to 600 °C. The findings, which […]

A new class of semiconductors that can store information in electric fields could enable computers that run on less power, sensors with quantum precision, and the conversion of signals between electrical, optical and acoustic forms—but […]

The Harvard RoboBee has long shown it can fly, dive, and hover like a real insect. But what good is the miracle of flight without a safe way to land?This post was originally published on […]

A team of Lehigh University researchers has successfully predicted abnormal grain growth in simulated polycrystalline materials for the first time—a development that could lead to the creation of stronger, more reliable materials for high-stress environments, […]

A team of scientists have developed zero thermal expansion (ZTE) materials. This innovation has achieved nearly 100% voltage recovery in aging lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). Their study is published in Nature.This post was originally published on […]

Engineers have developed a building material that uses the root-like mycelium of a fungus and bacteria cells. Their results, published in Cell Reports Physical Science, show that this material—which is manufactured with living cells at […]

University of Queensland researchers have set a world record for solar cell efficiency with eco-friendly perovskite technology. A team led by Professor Lianzhou Wang has unveiled a tin halide perovskite (THP) solar cell capable of […]

Lead halide perovskite solar cells (LHPSCs) have rapidly gained prominence in the field of photovoltaics, boasting impressive power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) of up to 26.1% in single-junction devices. However, despite their high performance, these materials […]

Preparing a new recipe from a cookbook usually means a trip to the grocery store for fresh ingredients, but a new recipe book created by a postdoctoral fellow at The University of New Mexico School […]

When players enter the virtual worlds of video games, they are greeted by complex architectural environments. These virtual spaces do more than serve as mere backdrops for gameplay. The design of buildings, streets and entire […]
