Using millions of tiny needles, the patch samples molecular data from inside cells without damaging them, providing intel on composition in minutes.

The new material could be used in cars and manufacturing facilities to reduce traffic and industrial noise. The post Owls ...

The vacuum suction cup is based on the Bernoulli principle, which uses a vacuum pump to extract air from the chamber to form ...

If you're installing new countertops, you're likely wondering if using a silicone countertop protector is worth it. Here, an ...

Nanoneedle tech could enable disease monitoring in real time, allowing clinicians to take multiple, repeatable tests from the same area.

“The solution integrates melanin and porous silicon (PSi) powder, a combination that was previously studied for use in heterojunction solar cells,” the research's corresponding author, Alfredo ...

The SiC porous ceramic with PCM was able to achieve a temperature reduction of 10.9% and an electrical efficiency increase of 7.4%, with an LCOE of $0.165/kWh.

This translates to a massive boost in terms of space efficiency, as more energy can be stored per unit volume. “The thicker SiO x films we achieved resulted in an energy density of the negative ...

All-solid-state batteries are safer and more durable alternatives to traditional lithium-ion batteries, but the cracking and detaching of silicon-based electrodes due to expansion and contraction ...

Methanol is a colorless, alternative liquid fuel. For the second study, the Yale labs of Mayer and Hazari collaborated on a process involving thin wafers of porous silicon, a form of silicon that is ...

Both established companies impregnate porous graphite structures with silicon; Sila also adds a coating to the particles. Ionobell appears to flip the script, according to the company’s patents.
