Tiny wrinkles bend physics to change how electricity moves through graphene
10+ hour, 53+ min ago (743+ words) image: Researchers have shown that tiny wrinkles in graphene can change the material’s electrical properties. By harnessing this characteristic, scientists may one day control electricity in atomically thin materials — such as graphene — by changing their shape instead of adding new…...

1+ day, 12+ hour ago (473+ words) Vehicle electrification threatens the primary end market for platinum, but proton-exchange membrane technologies in the emerging hydrogen economy offer a potential replacement as primary mine supply tightens....
In 1724, a Meteorite Fell in Germany. Scientists Found It Contained a Material “Impossible” Under Known Physics
2+ hour, 55+ min ago (422+ words) Researchers found that a material hidden inside a centuries-old meteorite acts like neither crystal nor glass. A chunk of rock that fell from space in 1724 has spent three centuries in a Paris museum. Researchers have now used it to confirm…...
Gold nanostars make voltage-sensing proteins brighter and several times faster
7+ hour, 17+ min ago (920+ words) Plasmonic nano-antennas altered a protein’s light emission and response speed without changing its genetic code. (CREDIT: Shutterstock) Gold nanostars only tens of nanometers across changed how a fluorescent voltage sensor behaved in living mammalian cells. The particles made the engineered…...
New thin-film material combines rigidity with extreme heat insulation
9+ hour, 26+ min ago (493+ words) The thin film has a thermal conductivity of roughly 0.04 W m⁻¹ K⁻¹ at room temperature. A newly designed non-porous, thin-film material combines extreme stiffness with exceptionally low thermal conductivity. It addresses a long-standing trade-off where stiff materials usually conduct heat…...
Can agricultural waste provide a sustainable alternative to activated carbon for water purification?
10+ hour, 43+ min ago (435+ words) Activated carbon is commonly used to remove pollutants from water. It has a large surface area and can attract many different contaminants, including some organic chemicals. However, producing activated carbon can require significant amounts of energy, and high-quality activated carbon…...
