Director of Seitz Materials Research Laboratory honored for contributions to stretchable/flexible electronic systems.

New bulk silicon nanosystem for electro-photonic applications
Research enables bulk silicon to emit broad-spectrum, visible light, opening the possibility of devices that have both electronic and photonic components.

Welding polymers using nanofibers and light
Researchers from North Carolina State University have developed a way to melt or “weld” specific portions of polymers by embedding aligned nanoparticles within the materials.

A fruitful combination – two optical processes combine for new 3D skin imaging technique
Combining two methods into a single platform opens up new possibilities for non-invasive 3D skin imaging.

Adhesion science goes to Florida
Adhesion Society meeting sticks together the fundamentals and applications of adhesive science.

Tough and pliable: a paper-like ceramic
Scientists produce a paper-like ceramic material which is as hard as copper, yet flexible enough to be rolled up or folded. The material has another advantage: it is electrically conductive.

Quantum vibration sensor from carbon nanotubes
Researchers from the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology and French colleagues from Grenoble and Strasbourg build novel quantum mechanical system.

Writing data with an X-ray laser
Using laser light to read and write magnetic data by quickly flipping tiny magnetic domains could help keep pace with the demand for faster computing devices.
New nanoparticles for anti-inflammation drug delivery
New particles give potential approach to treating atherosclerosis and other chronic inflammatory diseases.
Lockheed Martin awarded patent on graphene filtering material
Perforene material is a molecular filtration solution designed to meet the growing global demand for potable water.
