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 […]

Texas engineers have discovered a new phenomenon in modern batteries, one that could be used to improve their life cycles.This post was originally published on this site

Surround-sound speakers can immerse you in a multimedia experience, but what if there was a speaker that could completely re-create a three-dimensional soundscape?This post was originally published on this site

When seawater penetrates concrete in road tunnels, a biofilm is formed that breaks down the concrete. This can lead to high costs and the risk of damage if stone and concrete drop from the tunnel […]
