Understanding Resistive Switching [Video]
Resistive switching occurs when a dielectric suddenly changes its resistance in the presence of a strong electric field. This phenomenon underpins the behavior of devices such as memristors and neuromorphic memories. In Advanced Materials, Prof. Manfred Martin of...
Sustainable Outcomes from Groundwater Governance
Researchers at the International Water Management Institute put forward a new conceptual thinking to achieve sustainable, socially acceptable, resilient, and equitable resource use.
Severed Nerves Successfully Regenerated in Rats
Researchers in China move one step closer in achieving successful nerve regeneration.
Beyond Haber-Bosch: Non-Equilibrium Photocatalysis
A new photocatalyst is revolutionizing a time-old reaction, addressing how light can influence not just the kinetics of chemical reactions, but their thermodynamic equilibria.
The Promise and Challenges of Nanomedicines in Fighting Cancer
