Optical Displays Made Thinner With Synthetic DNA
DNA drives design principles for lighter, thinner optical displays Lighter gold nanoparticles could replace thicker, heavier layered polymers used in displays’ back-reflectors DNA is certainly the basis of life. Soon it might also be the basis of your electronic...
MOF Nanoparticles Used to Deliver Killer Protein to Cancer
In our design, self-assembly of MOF nanoparticles and encapsulation of proteins are achieved simultaneously through a one-pot approach in aqueous environment. The enriched metal affinity sites on MOF surfaces act like the buttonhook, so the extracellular vesicle membrane can be easily buckled on the MOF nanoparticles.
CO2 Electrochemical Reduction Unveils Renewable Energy Opportunities
Researchers uncovered a heterogeneous catalysis strategy that deliberately targets post-C-C coupling reaction intermediates during CO2 electrochemical reduction reaction. It opens avenues to the design of efficient catalysts that selectively produce higher-carbon liquid alcohols.
Velodyne LiDAR Brings World’s Most Advanced LiDAR Sensor
Velodyne LiDAR Brings World’s Most Advanced LiDAR Sensor. Adding the world’s most advanced LiDAR sensor to the Renovo AWare ecosystem provides fleet operators with the range, resolution and accuracy needed to guide autonomous vehicles reliably and safely through complex driving situations and conditions.
photodetector could improve night vision, thermal sensing and medical imaging
Using graphene, one of science’s most versatile materials, engineers from the UCLA Samueli School of Engineering have invented a new type of photodetector that can work with more types of light than its current state-of-the-art counterparts. The device also has superior sensing and imaging capabilities.
Cystic Fibrosis Therapy Improved by Lipid-Based Nanoparticles
Researchers at Oregon State University and Oregon Health & Science University are working on a treatment that holds great promise for improving the lives of cystic fibrosis patients. Cystic fibrosis is a progressive genetic disorder that results in persistent lung infection and afflicts 30,000 people in the U.S., with about 1,000 new cases diagnosed every year.
Clean Room Facility Brings 8-Inch Fabrication Capability to Cardiff University
Local business leaders across South Wales attended the launch of the new facility, which offers a range of solutions for companies working to develop 21st century technologies. Guests were able to learn more about the refurbished 225 square metre Clean Room facility and the role it plays in assisting businesses across South Wales as part of CS Connected – the world’s first Compound Semiconductor cluster.
Algae Outbreaks Increased by Nanomaterials
The last 10 years have seen a surge in the use of tiny substances called nanomaterials in agrochemicals like pesticides and fungicides. The idea is to provide more disease protection and better yields for crops, while decreasing the amount of toxins sprayed on agricultural fields.
Research team discovers drug compound that stop cancer cells from spreading
Research team discovers drug compound that stops cancer cells from spreading Via a mouse model, OHSU physician-scientists lead effort to hone a drug that inhibits cancer cells from spreading to other areas in the body Fighting cancer means killing cancer cells....
Low Cost Solar Cells for Mass Production
An international team of university researchers today reports solving a major fabrication challenge for perovskite cells — the intriguing potential challengers to silicon-based solar cells. These crystalline structures show great promise because they can absorb almost all wavelengths of light. Perovskite solar cells are already commercialized on a small scale, but recent vast improvements in their power conversion efficiency (PCE) are driving interest in using them as low-cost alternatives for solar panels.
Closing the gap: On the road to terahertz electronics
A team headed by the TUM physicists Alexander Holleitner and Reinhard Kienberger has succeeded for the first time in generating ultrashort electric pulses on a chip using metal antennas only a few nanometers in size, then running the signals a few millimeters above the surface and reading them in again a controlled manner. The technology enables the development of new, powerful terahertz components.
Solid Polymer Electrolyte for Lithium Batteries Increased Safety & Performance
Specifically, Zhu and his research team developed a solid polymer electrolyte that can be used in lithium ion batteries to replace the current liquid electrolyte to improve the safety and performance of lithium batteries.
