Storms, hail, rising floodwaters—extreme weather events have caused billions of euros in damage in recent years. In the ResCentric project, researchers from the Fraunhofer Institute for High-Speed Dynamics, Ernst-Mach-Institut, EMI have developed a simulation software […]

Researchers have demonstrated a new technique for self-assembling electronic devices. The proof-of-concept work was used to create diodes and transistors, and paves the way for self-assembling more complex electronic devices without relying on existing computer […]

A new 3D design for electrodes enables the Battolyser, a battery and electrolyzer in one, to store twice the amount of electricity it could previously hold and do so four times faster. Researchers from Delft […]

Perovskites are materials with advantageous optoelectronic properties that could be used to develop more affordable photovoltaics (PVs). While in recent years engineers were able to significantly improve the power-conversion efficiencies of perovskite solar cells, these […]

The manipulation of mechanical strain in materials, also known as strain engineering, has allowed engineers to advance electronics over the past decades, for instance enhancing the mobility of charge carriers in devices. Over the past […]

A research team from multiple institutions in China has proposed a novel concept of a thermal dome that could significantly advance the field of thermal invisibility technology. The study, published in Engineering, offers a potential […]

A team of researchers led by Professor Philip C.Y. Chow from the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Hong Kong (HKU) has revealed how the structure of organic photovoltaic (OPV) materials affects their […]

Passive interfaces, such as light switches or doorknobs, refer to hardware that can store energy, but the energy can only be used for the purpose it was intended. However, research is imagining new ways for […]

Semiconductor materials known as 2D halide perovskites can be used in devices such as solar cells and light-emitting diodes. Scientists led by Assoc Prof Nripan Mathews of NTU’s School of Materials Science and Engineering have […]
