According to a study published in Science Advances, researchers from Madrid explain why the angular profile of light emission depends on the step’s orientation: in cavities as small as those between ...

Almost exactly 200 years ago, French physicist Sadi Carnot determined the maximum efficiency of heat engines. The Carnot ...

Controlling the transport properties through a zeolite and the rates of diffusion and size of molecules that can be stored or transported are key in developing and optimizing zeolites for various ...

Researchers led by Giulia Galli at University of Chicago’s Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering report a computational study that predicts the conditions to create specific spin defects in silicon ...

Researchers visualized how gold nanocrystals coalesce at the atomic level, uncovering size, defect, and approach-dependent pathways that shape crystal structure. (Nanowerk News) Crystallization, a ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) The petrochemical industry relies on separating chemicals that differ by just fractions of a nanometer in size. Methanol must be purified from similarly-sized molecules in the ...
