New applications often require new materials. Quite often, materials are needed that do not occur naturally or have very specific properties. In order to find suitable materials for pioneering technologies, it is often not enough […]
Perovskite semiconductors are an exciting new material for use in solar cells. They are extremely thin and flexible, easy and inexpensive to manufacture, and highly efficient. However, two hurdles must be overcome before perovskite solar […]
Electrochemical cells—or batteries, as a well-known example—are complex technologies that combine chemistry, physics, materials science and electronics. More than power sources for everything from smartphones to electric vehicles, they remain a strong motivation for scientific […]
Flexible electronics—including wearable devices, stretchable sensors, and soft robotics—require materials that integrate mechanical flexibility, stretchability, and durability with additional attributes like electrical conductivity. A review in the journal Small considers the potential of natural rubber […]
Wireless power transfer (WPT) systems transmit electrical energy from a power source to a load without physical connectors or wires, using electromagnetic fields. This idea goes as far back as the 1890s, when Nikola Tesla […]
A research team led by Professor Jinho Chang from the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at DGIST has developed an “ultrasound-based wireless charging technology” capable of rapidly and efficiently charging the batteries of […]
Researchers at EPFL and Harvard University have engineered a chip that can convert between electromagnetic pulses in the terahertz and optical ranges on the same device. Their integrated design could enable the development of devices […]
Researchers from the Department of Chemistry, National Taiwan University, have developed a new synthesis route for ultrathin photoanodes, which enables a 100 nm tantalum nitride layer to outperform much thicker films fabricated through conventional oxide […]
Dr. Jung-Dae Kwon’s research team at the Energy & Environmental Materials Research Division of the Korea Institute of Materials Science (KIMS) has successfully developed an amorphous silicon optoelectronic device with minimal defects, even using a […]
Nvidia chips do not contain “backdoors” allowing remote access, the US tech giant has said, after Beijing summoned company representatives to discuss “serious security issues.”This article is brought to you by this site.
