New method simplifies the construction process for complex materials: With a new, user-friendly…
Engineers are constantly searching for materials with novel, desirable property combinations. For example, an ultra-strong, lightweight material could be used to make airplanes and cars more fuel-efficient, or a material that is porous and…
Towards silver cluster-assembled materials for environmental monitoring: Scientists develop two…
In recent years, there has been a growing interest in using silver nanoclusters (Ag NCs), nanoscale silver particles composed of tens to hundreds of atoms, across various fields like material science, chemistry, and biology. Ag NCs…
Materials science: How molecular entanglements determine the structure of polymers
The structure of semi-crystalline polymers largely depends on how strongly their molecular chains are entangled. This has been shown in a new study by researchers from Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg (MLU) which was published in…
Focus on semiconductor packaging right approach for India, says Applied Materials’ Prabu Raja
Semiconductor packaging is poised to be an inflection point in India’s chip-making and fabrication push and the country has the right talent to become a manufacturing centre, Prabu Raja, president of semiconductor products group (SPG) at…
New research explores durability of 2D hybrid materials
Researchers investigated the fatigue behavior of 2D hybrid materials, opening doors to their widespread use in real-world applications.
New research has unveiled the fatigue resistance of 2D hybrid materials. These materials have long-held…
A novel approach for balancing properties in composite materials
Dr. Amir Asadi, an assistant professor in the Department of Engineering Technology and Industrial Distribution at Texas A&M University, is making groundbreaking strides in the field of composite materials. His research explores…
Scientists caught Hofstadter’s butterfly in one of the most ancient materials on Earth
Researchers in the National Graphene Institute (NGI) at The University of Manchester have revisited one of the most ancient materials on Earth -- graphite, and discovered new physics that has eluded the field for decades.
Despite being made…
Japanese chemicals company sees potential niche in EUV chip making materials
TOKYO : Osaka Organic Chemical Industry, a Japanese manufacturer of high-end chemicals used in chip production, is betting on the materials market for extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography, a method for making advanced chips.Little…
Aluminum materials show promising performance for safer, cheaper, more powerful batteries
A good battery needs two things: high energy density to power devices, and stability, so it can be safely and reliably recharged thousands of times. For the past three decades, lithium-ion batteries have reigned supreme -- proving their…
