A newly developed strategy to solve electromigration could potentially extend the life and performance of devices based on nanoelectronics and semiconductors.
A new class of nanomaterials, called self-aware metamaterials, could supposedly generate their own power and sense changes in their environment - ushering the next material of fabricated living structures.
Two separate papers report the first radio observations of the galactic plane as made by the Australian SKA Pathfinder, or the ASKAP, taking the EMU project forward.
Scientists proved that a new type of transparent electrode could be used as a building block for see-through solar cells to make on-site energy generation possible.
European researchers are building robotic birds that can flap their wings and glides smoothly using air currents. They hope to use it in the next decade in medical emergencies and in searching for other drones.
Researchers have recently developed a brain training app featuring a junk food game that they claim, can help one eat less and lose weight even without dieting.
All you learn from solving brain games, puzzles and crosswords is how to solve them better, say experts; there’s no wider application to real-world tasks.
The problem with most existing chemical pesticides is that they contain harmful chemicals, both to human health and the environment - and a new formula opens up possibilities for safer and greener alternatives.
Space agencies NASA and ESA released a new image taken by the Hubble Space Telescope of the spiral galaxy NGC 691, the eponymous galaxy for the galaxy group where it belongs.
Through a combination of two immensely complex fields, scientists invented robotic systems, including a "smiling robot" that has the ability to think, act and learn on its own, within some limitations.
