NANOTECHNOLOGYNew study reveals how disclinations impact carbon nanotubes' mechanical strength. Understand the twisting weakness and its implications for future applications. Read more!
A new method could lead to the faster, better way of fabricating soft materials called diblock polymers, speeding up production from five months down to three minutes.
Most naturally-formed diamonds are from the Earth's mantle, generally understood to be formed as carbon is exposed to extreme temperature and pressure. A new study looks at the effects of a new parameter - electric fields - in the formation of these precious minerals.
The biggest game-changers for scientists in material science will be robotics and AI. Use of it, will be very efficient and have advantages for solar tech and other technologies.
Professor Bengt Svensson and his co-workers are currently developing a solar panel using nanotechnology. They claimed that the newest panel is superior in terms of efficiency as well as environment-friendly.
Temperature Sensor Made from Tobacco Cells Scientists and engineers love copying nature, there is even a term for it, biomimicry. Evolution has usually had thousands, millions, if not billions of years to perfect a mechanism, so it's usually pretty good.
