A team of engineers has created centimeter-scale structures that are composed of hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) and loaded with hundreds of billions of hollow aligned fibers (nanotubes).
In the last few years, two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials, thin sheet-like structures a few nanometers thick, have risen as prospective anode materials for Li-ion batteries.
The orientation control and the production of nanoscale hierarchical systems, such as bio-nanofibers and nanoparticles, have recently received significant scientific attention for developing advanced functional nanomaterials.
Perovskite-on-silicon tandem photovoltaic cells have the potential to outperform standard silicon (Si)-based photovoltaic cells in terms of power conversion efficiency (PCE).
Bottom-up engineering of synthetic condensate offers an understanding of condensate organization and helps to develop synthetic systems with unprecedented functions.
Substantial miniaturization of infrared (IR) sensors is necessary for their incorporation into next-generation portable electronics, wearable devices, and small satellites. However, modern infrared (IR) detectors depend on large (and costly) technology and materials.
The two distinct challenges of ice build-up: water adherence and ice adherence, are often conflated in anti-icing nano surface studies. Penguin feathers are excellent natural examples of anti-icing nano surfaces. As remarkable anti-icing strategies, these feathers use two distinct mitigation mechanisms, namely water-shedding and ice-shedding.
A UNSW paper published recently in Nature Reviews Materials presents an exciting overview of the emerging field of 2D ferroelectric materials with layered van-der-Waals crystal structures: a novel class of low-dimensional materials that is highly interesting for future nanoelectronics.
In a paper published in the journal ACS Applied Nano Materials, a simple, eco-friendly, and sustainable technique was presented for separating, converting, and utilizing lignocellulose components.
The method for creating unique hollow metal nanoparticle-based open-framework superlattices has significantly improved, according to Northwestern University researchers.
