1+ hour, 29+ min ago   (375+ words) By weakening interactions that normally tie electrolyte components into extended aggregates, researchers created an unusual nanoscale structure that could change how lithium metal batteries balance energy density, durability, and safety. Lithium metal batteries could achieve specific energies above 500 Wh kg…...

5+ day, 22+ hour ago   (150+ words) The process is currently semi-automated because a human operator must still occasionally step in to condition or repair the microscope tip if it becomes unstable. Additionally, construction is time-sensitive; building the 37-molecule lattice required approximately 900 iterations over 25 hours, with each…...

1+ week, 35+ min ago   (98+ words) Kun Zhou discusses advances in DNA nanotechnology, including a novel nanodevice that applies force to proteins, enhancing our understanding of mechanobiology. Michael Bell, at the helm of First Graphene, focuses on scaling graphene solutions, transforming industry perceptions, and driving measurable…...

2+ week, 2+ day ago   (310+ words) Microscopic analysis showed that the composite fibers had an outer diameter of 1.03 micrometers, a core diameter of 0.54 micrometers, and a shell thickness of 0.25 micrometers. Gel permeation chromatography confirmed that the mild, non-thermal fabrication process preserved polymer chain integrity without significant…...

3+ week, 5+ hour ago   (388+ words) Bulk boron does not naturally contain the weakly bonded layered structure found in materials such as graphite. Direct exfoliation therefore cannot easily separate bulk boron into thin sheets. Earlier liquid-phase exfoliation studies demonstrated that boron nanosheets could be produced, but…...

4+ week, 4+ hour ago   (150+ words) Nanoscale glass-glass interfaces with unusually high excess volume could give researchers new control over atomic transport, mechanical behavior, and functional properties beyond the limits of conventional glasses. Chandrashekar, Akshatha. "Nanoglass Interfaces Expand the Design Space for Amorphous Materials". AZoNano. 11 August…...

4+ week, 2+ day ago   (255+ words) This composite system strongly favored CO formation, with CO accounting for approximately 99.9% of the reported products after 90 minutes. Intermediates, such as carboxylic acid complexes, were proposed to facilitate stepwise reduction to CO, highlighting the authors' proposed synergistic interactions among TiO2, CDs,…...

1+ mon, 3+ day ago   (211+ words) Dynamic light scattering revealed that M54-B200 vesicles exhibited reversible aggregation behavior in response to changes in calcium ion concentration during crystallization; they aggregated when Ca2+ levels were high and redispersed as Ca2+ was depleted, leading to delayed occlusion compared to S56-B500 spheres, which remained…...

1+ mon, 3+ day ago   (110+ words) Michael Bell, at the helm of First Graphene, focuses on scaling graphene solutions, transforming industry perceptions, and driving measurable outcomes. Professor Dariusz Jarzabek & Martina Schenkel FIB-SEM enables precise, automated TEM lamella prep with expert insights from Zeiss and the Polish…...

1+ mon, 1+ week ago   (652+ words) Rare earth elements (REEs) are critical materials widely used in many advanced technologies and green energy applications. Terrestrial sources of REEs are increasingly limited, driving interest in alternative reservoirs such as marine sediments. Deep-sea sediments have been identified as a…...
