Kanazawa University, report in ACS Applied Nano Materials a new method to precisely measure nuclear elasticity—the stiffness ...

Kanazawa University, report in the Journal of the American Chemical Society the use of three-dimensional atomic force ...

A new additive manufacturing route creates carbon fiber silicon carbide mirrors that unite low weight, strength, and sub-nanometer smoothness, reaching 97 percent visible reflectance for space optics.

No one can control the weather, but certain clouds can be deliberately triggered to release rain or snow. The process, known ...

New microscopy and simulations show how water interacts with two forms of chitin, revealing why one is more reactive and a better fit for future bio-based technologies.

Kanazawa University, have used three-dimensional atomic force microscopy (AFM) and molecular dynamics simulations to determine the structure of water in the hydration of different types of chitin ...

Scientific tools maker Oxford Instruments said on Tuesday it expects to deliver improved performance for the rest of year, after order momentum returned in the second quarter, sending its shares up ...

Another benefit of the aluminium treatment is that it reduces the blue shift in peak wavelength with current density. For the device with aluminium treatment, the peak EQE and wall-plug efficiency ...

Only one side of a silver crystal has the right structure to trigger ice formation, revealing how these particles help clouds ...

Short ultraviolet/ozone (UVO) treatment optimizes cell adhesion on plastic culture substrates by selectively enriching ...

Silver iodide is the material of choice to make clouds release rain and snow. For decades, its remarkable ability to trigger precipitation has been used in cloud seeding to prevent hail damage and ...
