UC Berkeley Researchers Achieve Symmetry-Breaking in Bulk Metamaterial Solution

If you can uniformly break the symmetry of nanorod pairs in a colloidal solution, you’re a step ahead of the game toward achieving new and exciting metamaterial properties. But traditional thermodynamic -driven colloidal assembly of these metamaterials, which are materials defined by their non-naturally-occurring properties, often result in structures with high degree of symmetries in the bulk material. In this case, the energy requirement does not allow the structure to break its symmetry.

Special Nano-Complexes to Treat Puffy Eyes and Dark Circles

Winter can be cruel for the skin, especially for the sensitive eye area. Drastic temperature swings add additional pressure on the skin in order to keep homeostasis of the organism. The negative impact of winter makes eyes look older. The carried out study in New York, found that 82% of women have dark circles and puffy eyes in winter as opposed to 38% in summer.
