Modelling superfast processes in organic solar cell material

“In organic solar cells, carbon-based polymers convert light into charges that are passed to an acceptor. This type of material has great potential, but to unlock this, a better understanding is needed of the way in which charges are produced …

mouseVRheadset

“The mouseVRheadset is a VR system for mouse neuroscience and behavior research. By positioning the headset to the eyes of a head-fixed mouse running on a treadmill, virtual scenes can be displayed to the mouse in both closed-loop (treadmill motion …

My minimal Arduino Nano board

“I made this development board to use in prototypes which I want for a long time. This will save me a lot of money and equal compatibility. Sometimes I must prototype my projects to kept them working for a long …

Nano Cut-and-Sew: New Method for Chemically Tailoring Layered Nanomaterials Could Open Pathways to Designing 2D Materials on Demand

“A new process that lets scientists chemically cut apart and stitch together nanoscopic layers of two-dimensional materials — like a tailor altering a suit — could be just the tool for designing the technology of a sustainable energy future. Researchers from Drexel …

Nanorippled graphene becomes a catalyst

“A team of researchers led by Prof. Andre Geim from the National Graphene Institute (NGI) have discovered that nanoripples in graphene can make it a strong catalyst, contrary to general expectations that the carbon sheet is as chemically inert as …

NASA Awards Advance 3D Printing, Quantum Tech for Climate Research

“New technology is a key to helping NASA advance its long-term exploration goals for the benefit of all. To support its effort, the agency announced Thursday it will create two new institutes to develop technology in critical areas for engineering …

NASA’s Magellan Data Reveals Volcanic Activity on Venus

“In a first, scientists have seen direct evidence of active volcanism on Earth’s twin, setting the stage for the agency’s VERITAS mission to investigate. Direct geological evidence of recent volcanic activity has been observed on the surface of …

NASA’s Webb Telescope Captures Rarely Seen Prelude to Supernova

“A massive star on the cusp of death ejected huge volumes of hot gas into space. Webb’s Mid-Infrared Instrument revealed the structure of the material now surrounding the star. The rare sight of a Wolf-Rayet star – among the most …
