Superconductivity breakthroughs - Cuprates earn their stripes
The latest breakthrough answers a key question on the microscopic electronic structure of cuprate superconductors, the most celebrated material family in our quest for true room-temperature superconductivity.
Spot treatment with nanotechnology
Researchers use the latest in nanotechnology and transdermal drug delivery to take on an old problem: Acne.
Scientists invent new way to control light, critical for next gen of super fast computing
A device resembling a plastic honeycomb yet infinitely smaller than a bee's stinger can steer light beams around tighter curves than ever before possible, while keeping the integrity and intensity of the beam intact.
Modeling how cells move together could inspire self-healing materials (w/video)
Modelling the motion of cells moving together may help scientists design new technologies inspired by nature, such as self-healing materials in batteries and other devices.
Researchers use shearing method to create nanofiber 'gusher'
Creating large amounts of polymer nanofibers dispersed in liquid is a challenge that has vexed researchers for years. But engineers have now reported a method that can produce unprecedented amounts of polymer nanofibers, which have potential applications in filtration, batteries and cell scaffolding.
