Researcher Richard Olsson, seen here in the lab holding two sources of graphene, a spool of carbon fiber and a piece of mined graphite. Researchers in Sweden report a green alternative to reduce ...

Imagine a Pt-Ni nanoparticle that can split water into hydrogen and oxygen with remarkable efficiency, or a perovskite quantum dot that emits bright light with minimal energy loss. For such ...

A lab-on-a-disc system enables 90 precise and reproducible nanoparticle syntheses in minutes by automatically controlling reagent concentrations across parallel reactions with minimal manual input.

(Nanowerk News) In the early 20th century, the development of a catalyst for ammonia synthesis by the Haber-Bosch method took more than 10,000 experiments before it was successful. The development of ...

New material is self-assembling, long-lasting and recyclable. As electronic devices get smaller, the materials needed to create them get smaller as well. Nanoscience is the study of extremely small ...

Materials scientist Younan Xia is at the forefront of research revolutionizing how we design, synthesize, and use nanomaterials. Xia, who has joined Johns Hopkins University as the Bloomberg ...

What Are Low-Carbon Nanomaterials? Low-dimensional allotropes of carbon or low-carbon nanomaterials consist mainly or solely of carbon, possess extraordinary physical properties and can be ...
