A new bio-based hot glue derived from a byproduct of the wood pulp industry beats traditional epoxy resins and commercial hot-melt glues in terms of adhesive performance.
A joint research team has successfully developed a two-dimensional (2D) quantum material platform through the superposition of moiré lattices.
In the nanometer range (billionth of a meter), interactions occur between light and matter that do not happen on larger scales. As such, so-called nanophotonic materials have unique optical properties that open up a whole ...
Some of the most promising materials for future technologies come in layers just one atom thick, such as graphene, a sheet of carbon atoms arranged in a hexagonal lattice, prized for its exceptional strength and conductivity. ...
An international research team has successfully achieved single-molecule spectroscopic observation of hydrogen (H2) and deuterium (D2) confined within a picocavity. The picocavity was formed between a silver nanotip and a ...
Transfer of charge is a process in which electrons move within a molecule or between two molecules. It is a crucial chemical process that can be applied to a wide range of technologies. Intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) ...
Carbyne, a one-dimensional chain of carbon atoms, is incredibly strong for being so thin, making it an intriguing possibility for use in next-generation electronics, but its extreme instability causing it to bend and snap ...
The rules about magnetic order may need to be rewritten. Researchers have discovered that chromium selenide (Cr2Se3)—traditionally non-magnetic in bulk form—transforms into a magnetic material when reduced to atomically ...
Scientists from the Faculty of Â鶹ÒùÔºics and Applied Informatics at the University of Lodz have published an article on friction in the journal Small. Their research on "bismuth islands" moving on the surface of graphite confirmed ...
Recently, a group of researchers discovered a novel way to achieve spin-valve effects using kagome quantum magnets.
