In a development that could boost optical or light-based computing, a group of Indian scientists has developed a photodetector device by integrating sheets of nanomaterials with silicon. The device couldContinue Reading
Treatment of wastewater containing industrial dyes and toxic heavy metals is a major environmental problem, as the available treatment techniques are not very efficient and environment-friendly. Now a team ofContinue Reading
In a breakthrough, scientists have developed a new nanomaterial that uses solar energy to generate hydrogen from seawater, producing the low cost and clean-burning fuel more efficiently than existing materials.Continue Reading
One of the most potential high-energy and low-cost energy storage devices for the next generation of large-scale applications is sodium-metal batteries (SMBs). Uncontrolled dendrite formation, which penetrates the battery’s separatorContinue Reading
UC Riverside engineers have developed a way to recycle plastic waste, such as soda or water bottles, into a nanomaterial useful for energy storage. Mihri and Cengiz Ozkan and theirContinue Reading
Amferia, a start up that plans to commercialize a rubbery nano-material invention that seamlessly integrates with the human body — this could pave the way for everything from new reconstructiveContinue Reading
Flexible, lightweight and highly efficient micro-supercapacitors have been developed by Indian scientists, for potential use in advanced miniaturized digital devices. A team of scientists led by Prof Abha Misra atContinue Reading
Nitrogen really prefers to stay in the form of nitrogen gas — N2, though plants are capable of breaking down N2 in their root systems, but scientists have never beenContinue Reading
