In a towering aquarium in a darkened laboratory, moon jellyfish (Aurelia aurita) hover as if floating in space. The glow of neon lights illuminates their translucent, bell-shaped bodies as they expand and contract rhythmically, their […]
A team of materials scientists at Rice University has developed a new way to grow ultrathin semiconductors directly onto electronic components.This post was originally published on this site
With the right technology, solar energy has the potential to meet all of the world’s electricity needs, but we are still a long way off from that point. Still, governments around the world are setting […]
Silicon semiconductors used in existing photodetectors have low light responsivity, and the two-dimensional semiconductor MoS₂ (molybdenum disulfide) is so thin that doping processes to control its electrical properties are difficult, limiting the realization of high-performance […]
3D printing is a simple way to create custom tools, replacement pieces and other helpful objects, but it is also being used to create untraceable firearms, such as ghost guns, like the one implicated in […]
A new ultra-thin, transparent film, developed by researchers at UNIST can generate electrical signals solely through mechanical peeling or pressing actions. This technology paves the way for smart sensors that operate without batteries, with potential […]
MIT researchers have developed a reconfigurable antenna that dynamically adjusts its frequency range by changing its physical shape, making it more versatile for communications and sensing than static antennas.This post was originally published on this […]
From electric cars to artificial intelligence (AI) data centers, the technologies people use every day require a growing need for electricity. In theory, nuclear fusion—a process that fuses atoms together, releasing heat to turn generators—could […]
Lithium metal (Li-metal) batteries are among the most promising alternatives to widely employed rechargeable lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries, as they could store more energy and thus extend the battery life of many electronic devices. Despite their […]
When we are out in cold weather, we wear warm clothes to stay comfortable. But there is a snag. Regular warm clothing can’t adjust to changes in our body temperature. If we start to sweat, […]
