Room-temperature (RT) gas sensors with high sensitivity are essential in low-power Internet-of-Things (IoT) applications, such as smart sensors, wearable devices and mobile robots. Among these, metal...... Read more

Researchers from Nanjing University and the Army Engineering University of PLA have published a review in ExRNA, shedding light on the critical role of exosomes in diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM). Exoso...... Read more

Existing perovskite solar cells, which have the problem of not being able to utilize approximately 52% of total solar energy, have been developed by a Korean research team as an innovative technology...... Read more

While we might picture a biologist as a researcher hunched over a light microscope, carefully scrutinizing a single bacterium, modern scientists have more powerful instruments at their disposal to inv...... Read more

LMU researchers have developed a strategy that enables biosensors to be easily adapted for a wide range of applications.... Read more

More than 4 million people in the U.S. have glaucoma, a group of eye diseases that can damage the optic nerve and lead to vision loss. It's the second-leading cause of blindness worldwide and there's currently no cure, but there's a way to help prevent vision loss through early detection... Read more

A spoonful of sugar might actually help medicine go down, according to recent research from the University of Mississippi. And it could reduce the harmful side effects of cancer treatment. Instead of a literal spoonful of sugar, however, the researchers tried using glycopolymers—polymers made with natural sugars like glucose—to coat... Read more

A large number of 2D materials like graphene can have nanopores—small holes formed by missing atoms through which foreign substances can pass. The properties of these nanopores dictate many of the materials' properties, enabling the latter to sense gases, filter out seawater, and even help in DNA sequencing.... Read more

A new method enables researchers to analyze magnetic nanostructures with a high resolution. It was developed by researchers at Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg (MLU) and the Max Planck Institute of Microstructure Physics in Halle.... Read more

Scientists at the Beckman Institute for Advanced Science and Technology have identified a novel nanoparticle composed of palladium and hydrogen.... Read more

While toxic in high concentrations, copper is essential to life as a trace element. Many tumors require significantly more copper than healthy cells for growth—a possible new point of attack for cancer treatment.... Read more

Palladium, a rare metal that physically resembles platinum, is a top-billing catalyst famous in the energy sector for hydrogen storage and catalytic converters.... Read more

MIT physicists have taken a key step toward solving the puzzle of what leads electrons to split into fractions of themselves. Their solution sheds light on the conditions that give rise to exotic electronic states in graphene and other two-dimensional systems.... Read more
