Metamaterials are composites with a very precisely controlled structure. It is this structure that determines the properties of the metamaterial, not ...

Electromagnetic pulses (EMPs)—high-energy-density and ultra-wideband beams of electromagnetic radiation—are generated from sources such as nuclear explosions, high-power electromagnetic pulse devices, and ...

Researchers have developed a new method for 3D printing objects with very different properties, including levels of hardness and transparency, on ...

It has long been considered common sense that a single device performs only one function. Just as tuning a radio to ...

Virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) are technologies that allow users to immerse themselves in digital worlds or enhance their ...

Scientists from China have developed a new way to recycle lithium batteries that is a triple win for the planet. It ...

A UCLA-led, multi-institution research team has discovered a metallic material with the highest thermal conductivity measured among metals, challenging long-standing assumptions ...

A new set of simple equations can fast-track the search for metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), a Nobel-Prize-winning class of nanoporous materials that ...

Hydrogen, a clean energy source, requires a highly reliable and safe storage system, which is currently lacking. Layered hydrogen silicane (L-HSi) ...

Researchers at the School of Engineering of The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) have developed the world's first ...
