Researchers developed a process for manufacturing advanced thin films in which sophisticated timing enables high-quality functional layers at low process temperatures. (Nanowerk News) Our everyday ...

Our everyday lives are so riddled with electronics that we hardly notice them anymore. When we casually reach for our smartphone, we rarely think about how complex this device is. Hundreds of tiny ...

Their self-assembled piezoelectric biomolecular films are capable of producing electrical signals from mechanical stress produced by muscle stretching, breathing, blood flow and small body movements.

A research team led by The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) has developed a novel technique to self-assemble a thin layer of amino acids with ordered orientation over a large ...

Albuquerque, N.M. — For the past three years a Sandia research team headed by Mat Celina has been investigating the performance of various piezoelectric polymer films that might one day serve as ultra ...

Osteoarthritis – a painful condition that results from the deterioration of the cartilage in our joints – affects millions of people worldwide. This persistent problem has been challenging to address, ...
