A self-erasing chip for security and anti-counterfeit technologies.

Hot Stuff: Unusual thermal diode rectifies heat in both directions

Dual-mode thermal rectification could be a game changer for a range of industrial and medical applications.

Graphite instead of gold: Nanolayers for better hydrogen cars

Researchers devlop innovative coating for bipolar plates in fuel cells.

Researchers use amino acids to grow high-performance copper thin films

For the first time, researchers have shown that highly ordered copper thin films can be crystallized directly on a one-molecule-thick layer of organic material rather than on the inorganic substrates that have been used for years.

Why disordered light-harvesting systems produce ordered outcomes

Scientists typically prefer to work with ordered systems. However, a diverse team of physicists and biophysicists found that individual light-harvesting nanotubes with disordered molecular structures still transport light energy in the same way.
