Solar cells that produce electricity 24/7, not just when the sun is shining. Mobile phones with built-in power cells that recharge in seconds and work for weeks between charges. Silicon chip with porous surface next to the special furnace where it wa

Researchers in electrical and computer engineering at University of California, Santa Barbara have introduced and modeled an integrated circuit design scheme in which transistors and interconnects are monolithically patterned seamlessly on a sheet of

A living cell is built with barriers to keep things out – and researchers are constantly trying to find ways to smuggle molecules in.‬ ‪Professor Giovanni Maglia (Biochemistry, Molecular and Structural Biology, KU Leuven) and his team have engineered

Researchers at Purdue University are developing a new graphene "nanopetals" mass production process based on a roll-to-roll process. Those nanopetals are graphene-based vertical nanostructures that look like tiny rose petals, and they have applicatio

Standardized technique opens remarkable opportunities for ‘mix and match’ materials fabrication DNA linkers allow different kinds of nanoparticles to self-assemble and form relatively large-scale nanocomposite arrays. This approach allows for mixing

Researchers in the US, Germany, Singapore and Spain have developed a new technique to image grain boundary defects in graphene by analysing how surface plasmons are reflected and scattered by the defects. The study reveals that the boundaries, which

Researchers at the University of Texas at Austin in the US and the University of Science and Technology of China have developed a new graphene analogue called vanadyl phosphate, VOPO4. The 2D nanosheet can be combined with graphene itself to make a n

A new ternary electrode made from nanostructured silicon nanoparticles, conducting polymer hydrogel and carbon nanotubes developed by researchers at the University of Texas at Austin in the US might be ideal as an ultrahigh performance lithium-ion ba

Researchers at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign have succeeded in generating intense magnetic fields on the nanoscale by focusing electric current through a nanosized metal constriction. The feat has allowed them to perform magnetic res

Graphene (a sheet of carbon just one atom thick) can be successfully p-doped with boron, according to new experiments by researchers at Columbia University in the US. The result means that the carbon material can be both electron- and hole-doped, som

Researchers at Oxford University in the UK have made a thin-film solar cell with better than 15% light-conversion efficiency from an emergent class of semiconductors known as perovskites. The devices have a simple architecture and could easily be pro

Graphene Frontiers, a spinout from the University of Pennsylvania, US, has been awarded $745k from the National Science Foundation (NSF) to demonstrate and develop roll-to-roll production of continuous graphene film. The company, founded in 2011, is

Researchers at the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign in the US have made the first wearable and flexible thermometer from arrays of nanosized sensors. The patch-like device, which can measure temperature variations on human skin to a precisi
