Manipulating non-magnetic atoms in a chromium halide enables tuning of magnetic properties

New approach creates synthetic layered magnets with unprecedented level of control over their magnetic properties.

Discovery of disordered nanolayers in intermetallic alloys

Resolving alloys' strength-ductility trade-off and thermal instability.

A nanotechnology-based system that can transport methane at lower pressure and cost

Researchers have created an optimal, low-cost methane storage system. In the pores of this MOF material (highly porous metal-organic framework) it is possible to create the conditions required to replicate gas structures under the sea.

Mucus-penetrating nanocarriers for efficient therapy of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

The researchers combined PEGylated chitosan nanoparticles and biodegradable black phosphorus quantum dots to deliver amikacin for efficient therapy of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
