Stanford Creates New 3D Printing Method
With most 3D printers, objects are built up layer by layer. But what if they didn’t have to be? Dan Congreve, an…
Mini Transistors—Here We Come
Lund University researchers developed a simple, single hydrocarbon molecule with a logic gate function, paving the…
2-D Polymer—Stronger Than Steel, Lighter Than Plastic
A new two-dimensional polymer is doing something once thought impossible; self-assembling into sheets. The material…
What’s Inside a Graphene Sandwich?
In a recent study, researchers synthesized 2D cuprous Iodide stabilized in a graphene sandwich—and the material…
Living Building Materials? They’re Closer Than You Think…
While the image above may look like Jello, it isn't. It is an engineered bacteria and silica combination that can…
New artificial material mimics quantum entangled rare earth compounds
Physicists created a new ultra-thin two-layer material with quantum properties that normally require rare earth…
