“The printed solenoids could enable electronics that cost less and are easier to manufacture — on Earth or in space. Imagine being able to build an entire dialysis machine using nothing more than a 3D printer. This could not only reduce …
“Study shows metal-organic particles can both deliver vaccines and act as an adjuvant to generate a strong immune response at a lower dose. Many vaccines, including vaccines for hepatitis B and whooping cough, consist of fragments of viral or bacterial …
“The finding provides new insights into the ultrafast control of magnetic materials, with potential to enable next-generation information processing technologies. Plucking a guitar string is a simple action that generates a harmonic series of overtones. However, skilled guitar players can …
“An MIT team precisely controlled an ultrathin magnet at room temperature, which could enable faster, more efficient processors and computer memories. Experimental computer memories and processors built from magnetic materials use far less energy than traditional silicon-based devices. Two-dimensional magnetic …
“MIT engineers developed a tag that can reveal with near-perfect accuracy whether an item is real or fake. The key is in the glue on the back of the tag. A few years ago, MIT researchers invented a cryptographic ID …
“The SecureLoop search tool efficiently identifies secure designs for hardware that can boost the performance of complex AI tasks, while requiring less energy. With the proliferation of computationally intensive machine-learning applications, such as chatbots that perform real-time language translation, device …
“The approach directly converts the greenhouse gas into formate, a solid fuel that can be stored indefinitely and could be used to heat homes or power industries. The search is on worldwide to find ways to extract carbon dioxide from …
“The LIRAS technique could speed up the development of acoustic lenses, impact-resistant films, and other futuristic materials. Metamaterials are products of engineering wizardry. They are made from everyday polymers, ceramics, and metals. And when constructed precisely at the microscale, in …
“The results open the door to exploring superconductivity and other exotic electronic states in three-dimensional materials. Electrons move through a conducting material like commuters at the height of Manhattan rush hour. The charged particles may jostle and bump against each …
“The work demonstrates control over key properties leading to better performance. MIT researchers and colleagues have demonstrated a way to precisely control the size, composition, and other properties of nanoparticles key to the reactions involved in a variety of clean …
