Charge model for calculating the photoexcited states of one-dimensional Mott insulators

Clarification of photoinduced phenomena through the theoretical analysis of optical spectra.

Programmable nests for cells

Researchers developed novel composites of DNA, silica particles, and carbon nanotubes - properties can be tailored to various applications.

3D printing with applications in the pharmaceutical industry

Researchers have, for the first time, succeeded in printing a 3D image with stabilised gold nanoparticles with biodegradable and biocompatible polymer systems.

A wearable gas sensor for health and environmental monitoring

A highly sensitive wearable gas sensor for environmental and human health monitoring may soon become commercially available.

Miniature double glazing: Material developed which is heat-insulating and heat-conducting at the same time

Researchers developed and characterized a novel, extremely thin and transparent material that has different thermal conduction properties depending on the direction. While it can conduct heat extremely well in one direction, it shows good thermal insulation in the other direction.

How sensitive can a quantum detector be?

A new device measures the tiniest energies in superconducting circuits, an essential step for quantum technology.

A superlattice based STT-MRAM with extra-high performance

Researchers have developed a superlattice based STT-MRAM with extra-high performance, called SS-MARM or SL-STT-MARM, which has several advantages, including not only ultra-low power consumption, ultra-high MR ratio, high-speed writing and low RA but also high endurance and simple manufacturing, comparing to traditional STT-MRAM.

Edible 'security tag' to protect drugs from counterfeit

Researchers are aiming to stump counterfeiters with an edible 'security tag' embedded into medicine. To imitate the drug, a counterfeiter would have to uncrack a complicated puzzle of patterns not fully visible to the naked eye.

Light powers world's fastest-spinning object

Nanoparticle levitated by light rotates at 300 billion rpm.
