Engineering defects in ferroelectrics provides key to improved polarisation stability

Improved polarisation retention in ferroelectric a significant step forward for domain-wall nanoelectronics in data storage.

Light-up wheels: Unique organic light-emitting molecular emitters

Researchers design and synthesize highly efficient carbon-based 3rd-generation OLED molecular emitters by linking the donor and acceptor modules into a ring.

Addressing global warming with new nanoparticles and sunshine

Artificial photosynthesis:visible-light-driven photocatalysts convert CO2 into oxygen and pure CO under water.

Walking with atoms - chemical bond making and breaking recorded in action

Scientists have for the first time captured and filmed atoms bonding together, using advanced microscopy methods they captured a moment that is around half a million times smaller than the width of a human hair.

Taming ultrafast electrons with light

Physicists have exploited light to control the motion of electrons in a metallic nanocircuit. This could have major implications for the future of data processing and computing.
