Researchers from the Institute of Physics in Zagreb have shown that depositing a thin layer of organic molecules on ...

Researchers recently discovered a helicoidal-shaped defect in layered polymers, uncovering how solvents can diffuse through layers and produce color changes. Dr. Edwin L. Thomas, professor in the ...

Researchers from University of Central Florida (UCF) in collaboration with a researcher from Universidad Politécnica de Madrid (UPM) have published an article in Optica that suggests a new phenomenon ...

Silicon carbide (SiC) unipolar semiconductors are in wide commercial use, but their operations are limited by a trade-off relationship between breakdown voltage and specific resistance of the drift ...

Researchers develop a simple method to build stable, atom-thick metal layers using tiny defects in carbon, enabling efficient use of metals across technologies. (Nanowerk Spotlight) Using metals in ...

Solid electrolyte is the key component in enabling the safe, energy-dense all-solid-state batteries. Before highly conductive solid electrolytes can be developed in a knowledge-based manner, the ...

Such layers are only three atomic layers thick: there are tungsten atoms in the middle, coupled to selenium atoms below and above. "If energy is supplied to the layer, for example by applying an ...

Dr. Edwin L. Thomas, professor in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering, and a team of researchers from Texas A&M University and Yonsei University recently discovered a helicoidal-shaped ...
