But, it turns out, a thermometer has been part of photonic chips all along.

A team developed a new method for synthesizing a novel crystalline form of silicon with a hexagonal structure that could potentially be used to create next-generation electronic and energy devices ...

The energy density of supercapacitors -- battery-like devices that can charge in seconds or a few minutes -- can be improved by increasing the 'messiness' of their internal structure. Researchers used ...

Figure 1: Device structure and energy levels of the inverted-type PSCs. Figure 2: Device performances of the inverted structure (ITO/PFN interlayer/active layer/MoO 3 (10 nm)/Al) PTB7:PC 71 BM PSCs ...

Owing to the many different ways atoms can be arranged within the material, ice can exist in many more forms than what’s known as ice I, the type we’re all familiar with. Scientists have actually ...

A team led by Carnegie’s Thomas Shiell and Timothy Strobel developed a new method for synthesizing a novel crystalline form of silicon with a hexagonal structure that could potentially be used to ...
