A potential revolution in device engineering could be underway, thanks to the discovery of functional electronic interfaces in quantum materials that can self-assemble spontaneously

Collaborators of the MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR, an experiment led by Oak Ridge National Laboratory, have shown they can shield a sensitive, scalable 44-kilogram germanium detector array from background radioactivity

A high-resolution laser helped to unveil scientific clues that were lying in plain sight and yet remarkably went unnoticed until now

Currently, CNRS researchers are developing reverse osmosis membranes, commonly used to desalinate seawater

Scientists have  produced a new design for a beyond-lithium-ion battery cell that operates by running on air (hence, referred to as “lithium-air”) over many charge and discharge cycles

Researchers found that adding tiny cellulose fibers extracted from banana plant waste to ice cream could slow melting, increase shelf life, and potentially replace fats used to make the tasty treat

Proposed detector technology would be sensitive to an unexplored range of particle masses

These lenses are ideal for calibrated imaging applications such as measurement and gauging, 3D stereo vision, robotics and sensing, autonomous vehicles, and object tracking.

UV fused silica substrate offers extended range deep into the UV

Shortest and most compact form factor for an objective

The procedure centers on making droplets, which are a mixture of two or more immiscible, or unmixable, liquids—in this case, oil, water, and alcohol

“One day you might have a good cup of coffee and the next day you might not. From a scientific perspective, it has always puzzled me why we couldn’t do the same thing twice,” researcher says
