AFM maps mechanical forces in protein complex
Researchers in Germany, the US and Israel say they have discovered a new mechanism for making a protein complex mechanically stable
Coffee grounds capture carbon
Methane capture and storage allows double environmental returns, since it removes a harmful greenhouse gas from the atmosphere and it can then be used as a fuel that is cleaner than other fossil fuels. Materials that can absorb methane are attracting a great deal of interest because of the inherent danger of storage in gas […]
Injectable electronics monitor brain activity
Mesh electronics, a macroporous network of components with mechanical properties similar to that of biological tissue, is a relatively new technology that can be used to probe activity in the brain. Now, researchers at Harvard University in the US have overcome two major challenges holding back this technology. First, they have found a way to […]
Ultrathin elastic sheets wrap around liquid drops
By studying how thin elastic sheets wrap themselves around a liquid droplet, researchers in the US and Japan have discovered that the “wrappers” try to enclose the maximum amount of liquid in a fixed area of sheet. The effect is rather like making samosas or calzones, where we try to stuff the maximum amount of […]
Perovskite quantum dots emit single photons
Individual perovskite quantum dots can operate as efficient room-temperature single-photon sources (or quantum emitters) that emit photons one by one, according to new work by researchers at the Los Alamos National Laboratory and the University of New Mexico. The materials might be used in light-emitting diodes, with practical applications in displays…….. http://nanotechweb.org/cws/article/tech/62462 Perovskite quantum dots […]
