Scientists use 3D visualization to map striking and transformative nanoscale surface structures

A sensing technique that the U.S. military currently uses to remotely monitor the air to detect potentially life-threatening chemicals, toxins, and pathogens has inspired a new instrument that could “sniff” for life on Mars and other targets in the solar system

Imperial College London scientists have created plans for 3D printing the cosmic microwave background 

Some scientists have an important, if morbid, job: They study the smell of decomposing human bodies.

The lab will be accessible to the scientific community and ultimately speed up and reduce the cost of discovering, manufacturing, and commercializing new materials

“If we can turn Ge into an optoelectronic material, then other characteristics would make it attractive as a laser material.”

Scientists report that well water both near and far from leaking coal ash ponds in North Carolina contains hexavalent chromium from natural sources

The large and distant planet may be adding a wobble to the solar system, giving the appearance that the sun is tilted slightly

Since its inception, I3 has been a valuable resource for researchers at the lab looking to combine different imaging approaches to solve complex problems

"This is a new version of a printing method we have developed and used in the past. We used it to create a thermomechanical metamaterial that may enable applications not possible before."

Winning entry was a recipe for a 'Micropillars Chocolate Cake', providing an imaginative yet informative explanation of how micropillar electrodes are created and used to monitor the passage of single cells

Novel technique may lead to longer battery life in portable electronics and electrical vehicles
