Scientists develop 2D nanosheets for sustainable carbon capture

Global warming has been attributed to the sharp increase in heat-trapping greenhouse gas emissions, in particular CO2 emissions. Carbon capture technology, such as using adsorbents to capture and store CO2 from ambient air, ...

Thinnest-ever freestanding film with ferroelectric properties

Researchers at the Institute for Future Materials and Systems at Nagoya University in Japan have successfully synthesized barium titanate (BaTiO3) nanosheets with a thickness of 1.8 nanometers, the thinnest thickness ever ...

How protein-rich droplets form

Using a new method, terahertz (THz) calorimetry, a research team from the Cluster of Excellence Ruhr Explores Solvation (RESOLV) in Bochum shed new light on the spontaneous phase separation into a protein-rich and a protein-poor ...

AI boosts usability of paper-making waste product

In a new and exciting collaboration with the Department of Bioproducts and Biosystems, researchers in the CEST group have published a study demonstrating how artificial intelligence (AI) can boost the production of renewable ...

Light-controlled reactions at the nanoscale

Controlling strong electromagnetic fields on nanoparticles is the key to triggering targeted molecular reactions on their surfaces. Such control over strong fields is achieved via laser light. Although laser-induced formation ...
