A University of Arkansas physicist and her colleagues have examined dielectric susceptibilities of nanostructures - that is, the response of their polarisation to electric fields -…
Scientists may be one step closer to understanding the atomic forces that cause friction, thanks to a recently published study by researchers from the University of Pennsylvania, the…
Unexpected differences recently discovered between the elements niobium and tantalum may lead to more optimised electronic materials and photocatalysts. Sandia researcher May Nyman…
Carbon nanotubes have been employed for a variety of uses including composite materials, biosensors, nano-electronic circuits and membranes. While they have proven useful for these…
