Caltech engineers have created a new material made of highly interconnected microscale knots in the latest advancement in nano- and micro-architected materials.
Catalysts made of only a few atoms exhibit great potential in the area of water treatment owing to their great efficiency. In a new study, scientists analyzed how to enhance the performance of these catalysts and make them feasible for practical applications.
Researchers from the Institute of Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, together with collaborators from the University of Science and Technology of China, have revealed the formation of boron clusters with magic numbers on monolayer borophene and observed the evolution process from monolayer borophene with adsorbed boron clusters to bilayer borophene.
The amount of surface oxygen present in graphene materials is an important aspect in determining how successful they can be in killing bacteria—a breakthrough that might aid in developing safer and more efficient products to fight antimicrobial resistance.
Scientists are vigorously competing to transform the counterintuitive discoveries about the quantum realm from a century past into technologies of the future. The building block in these technologies is the quantum bit, or qubit.
A property of ferroelectric 2D materials has been disclosed by the materials scientist Boris Yakobson of Rice University and his collaborators. This property could be used as a feature in future devices.
For more than a century, X-Ray diffraction has been used to comprehend the structure of crystals or proteins; for example, the well-known double helix structure of DNA, which carries genetic information, was found in this way in 1952. Using this method, short-wavelength X-Ray beams are blasted at the object being studied.
Gene therapy has the potential to treat a broad spectrum of diseases caused by genetic mutations. Despite plenty of diverse research in the field, gene therapy has historically only been used to treat a relatively small number of patients, and even fewer have been successfully cured.
Researchers at Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB) have created spherical, biocompatible, and stable nanostructures that have a strong affinity for the spike protein and guard against cell infection.
A recent study in the journal PNAS Nexus discovered transformation-mediated twinning (TMT), a novel twinning process present in metastable fcc substances.
