Fundamental research sheds light on new many-particle quantum physics in atomically thin semiconductors

Research on light-matter interaction could improve electronic and optoelectronic devices.

Simple fabrication of full-color perovskite LEDs

A recent study has introduced a simple technique to extract the three primary colors (red, blue, green) from perovskite nanoparticles.

Efficient light conversion with perovskite nanocrystals

Researchers show that carrier multiplication exists in perovskite nanocrystals.

Micro energy harvesters for the Internet of Things

Thin organic layers provide machines and equipment with new functions. They enable, for example, tiny energy recuperators.

Synergy in two-dimensional materials and membranes research

Where researchers who worked with two-dimensional materials and those who worked with membranes were once separate, synergistic opportunities are resulting in exciting new developments.

Stamp-sized graphene sheets riddled with holes could be boon for molecular separation

Fabrication technique could be integrated into manufacturing to make large-scale membranes.

Color-changing contact lens could enhance monitoring of eye disease treatments

Researchers have developed a contact lens that changes color as drugs are released. This visual indicator could help eye doctors and patients readily determine whether these medications are where they should be.

Fighting forgetfulness with nanotechnology

An international team of researchers is working on a nanomedicine treatment for Alzheimer's disease.
