According to a report in Nature(via Interesting Engineering), researchers from the Chinese Academy of Physics can create super-thin sheets, just one or two atoms thick, out of materials including ...

Chinese scientists have found a way to squeeze metals into ultra-thin sheets – no more than a few atoms thick. Some experts believe the feat could revolutionise the way electronic devices are made, ...

Sheets of metal just two atoms thick can be produced by squashing molten droplets at great pressure between two sapphires. The researchers who developed the process say the unusual materials could ...

From transistors and flexible display to neuromorphic chips, the future of electronics is expected to be significantly ...

Most people would recognize the device in the image above, although they probably wouldn’t know it by its formal name: the Crookes radiometer. As its name implies, placing the radiometer in light ...

Northwestern researchers have collaborated with scientists from the California Institute of Technology to produce electricity by flowing water over inexpensive, thin layers of metal. The method of ...

In a step toward more efficient, smaller and higher-definition display screens, a researcher has developed a new type of color filter made of nano-thin sheets of metal with precisely spaced gratings.

video: Researchers at Tokyo Metropolitan University have developed a new method to make ceramic-based flexible electrolyte sheets for lithium metal batteries. They combined a garnet-type ceramic, a ...
