Recently a super-strain nanoporous material, barium calcium zirconium titanate composition (Ba0.85Ca0.15)(Ti0.9Zr0.1)O3 (BCZT) was created, which showcases an extraordinary piezoelectric response (d33 ≈7500 pm V-1) . This ...
Researchers have uncovered how a structure in bodily carbohydrates (sugar chains or "glycans") that regulates how they attach themselves to other molecules interacts with key enzymes, and in so doing can contribute to a range ...
A new joint study uncovers the remarkable potential of ultrafast lasers that could provide innovative solutions in 2D materials processing for many technology developers such as high-speed photodetectors, flexible electronics, ...
A research team from the University of Jena has developed a small optical lens, only a few millimeters in size, whose refractive behavior changes in the presence of gas. As reported by the researchers in the journal Nature ...
A small team of biologists from Freie Universität Berlin and the Max Planck Institute for Chemical Ecology, both in Germany, has calculated the degree of risk faced by wild fruit flies by capturing more than 10,000 of them ...
Stars blinking code in Netflix's "3 Body Problem" might be science fiction, but by deciphering neutron stars' erratic flickers, a new study has revealed the twisted origin of these dead stars' mysterious "heartbeats."
High-speed volumetric imaging is an indispensable tool for investigating dynamic biological processes. Traditional scanning-based 3D imaging techniques, such as confocal microscopy, two-photon microscopy, and light-sheet ...
Atmospheric aerosol particles act as a key modulator of Earth's climate. New particle formation (NPF) from condensable gas molecules is the fundamental source of most atmospheric particles.
A research group led by Dr. Edward Curtis has developed two new types of catalytic DNA molecules (deoxyribozymes) that can reveal the presence of target molecules through fluorescence or color. Several types of sensors were ...
There is a lot going on inside atomic nuclei. Protons and neutrons are whizzing around and interacting with each other. The movement of the nuclear particles and their intrinsic angular momentum induce magnetic moments. Together, ...
