Researchers from the University of Hong Kong studying the structure of 2D materials have predicted new types of phase transitions that have yet to be seen in experiments ...

As few as five electrons in a semiconductor can exhibit collective behaviour, forming a “Coulomb liquid”, according to ...

Investigation of the effect of addition of external positive ions on the humidity-sensing properties of perovskite-based oxides is an interesting topic. Humidity-sensitive properties of barium ...

The photoelectric effect, first explained in 1905, transformed our understanding of how light interacts with matter. When ...

A new method uses helium droplets combined with ultrashort laser pulses to trigger chemical reactions in a controlled way.

The imbalance between bone formation and osteolysis plays a key role in the pathogenesis of aseptic loosening. Strontium ranelate (SR) can promote bone formation and inhibit osteolysis. The aim of ...

Blink and you might miss it, but if you keep your eye on the monitors in professor Sebastian Will's lab, you'll catch a ...

Two isoreticular and topologically unique metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have been synthesized using Sr (NO 3) 2 and the organic linkers 2-nitro- [1,1′-biphenyl]-4,4′-dicarboxylic acid (H 2 bpdcNO 2) ...

The artificial biohybrid can efficiently produce hydrogen using electrons from light-powered biological systems. The researchers published their findings in the journal Advanced Science on June 17 ...

By using a new material, He Ruihua, of Westlake University in Hangzhou, in China’s eastern Zhejiang province, and his team overcame the defence and acquired concentrated electrons.

This concept isn’t just futuristic—it carries real-world relevance. Companies might begin to hedge not only currency risk but also energy risk. Imagine supermarkets trading kilowatt-hours or data ...
