Imagine a Slushee composed of ammonia and water encased in a hard shell of water ice. Now picture these ice-encrusted slushballs, dubbed "mushballs," raining down like hailstones during a thunderstorm, illuminated by intense ...
Propane dehydrogenation (PDH) reaction is a highly endothermic reaction, typically requiring temperatures above 600°C in conventional thermo-catalysis. However, elevated temperatures lead to significant energy consumption, ...
In the 1970s, NASA's Voyager probes passed through Jupiter's system and snapped pictures of its largest moons, also known as the Galilean moons. These pictures and the data they gathered offered the first hints that a global ...
Researchers from Pohang University of Science and Technology (POSTECH) and the University of Montpellier have successfully synthesized wafer-scale hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) exhibiting an AA-stacking configuration, a crystal ...
Hydrothermal alteration is a complex geological process that can later serve as an indicator of gold deposits for mineral explorers. The process sees hot and metal-rich fluids interact with surrounding rocks, causing chemical ...
A research team has successfully developed a new synthesis technology for 2D semiconductors. This technique enables the direct growth of wafer-scale single-crystal 2D semiconductors on various substrates. The research is ...
Research Fellow Dr. Babak Bakhit has encountered one of his most challenging projects to date—contributing to the European Space Agency's (ESA) JUpiter ICy moons Explorer (JUICE) mission.
University of Missouri scientists are unlocking the secrets of halide perovskites—a material that's poised to reshape our future by bringing us closer to a new age of energy-efficient optoelectronics.
Approximately 66 million years ago, the Chicxulub asteroid, estimated to be 10–15 kilometers in diameter, struck the Yucatán Peninsula (in current-day Mexico), creating a 200-kilometer-wide impact crater. This impact triggered ...
A breakthrough in decoding the growth process of hexagonal boron nitride (hBN), a 2D material, and its nanostructures on metal substrates could pave the way for more efficient electronics, cleaner energy solutions and greener ...
