Amphibious seals are less susceptible to hearing loss from airborne noises than their relatives and some can learn to close ...

X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) has been used for over 50 years to make sensitive measurements of surface elemental and chemical composition. In recent years, the method’s use has grown ...

Ferroelectric materials have shown promise for advanced memory storage. However, as temperatures exceed 200 C, standard oxide-based ferroelectrics and silicon-based control electronics deteriorate.

Glass-forming molecular liquids undergo a peculiar transition under decreasing temperature. The mobility of individual molecules in the liquid — known as its structural relaxation — slows down, and ...
