microwaves

With a flick of a switch, current technologies allow you to quickly change materials from being dark to light, or cold to hot, just by blocking or transmitting specific wavelengths. But now, inspired by squid skin, researchers in ACS Nano…

A microwave technology invented at Macquarie University will improve the manufacture of solar cells and make them easier to recycle. During the fabrication of solar panels, silicon goes through several high-temperature processes known as…

The Institute of Advanced Energy at Kyoto University, together with the Kharkiv Institute and the Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics have collaborated to create plasmas with fusion-suitable densities, using microwave power with low…

Much of what the chemicals industry produces, except for metals, is derived from fossil resources. Using renewable biomass and even one-carbon sources -- such as formaldehyde -- is necessary to increase the sustainability of the chemicals…

Even as the global commodity prices are witnessing a fall now amid recession fears, the prices of fridges, ACs, microwaves and washing machines may come off soon as the companies look to pass on the benefits of falling input costs. The…
