A free-standing sodium-ion battery anode combines bismuth, molybdenum disulfide, and carbon nanofibers to deliver strong long-term cycling performance in lab-based half-cell tests. Study: Construction ...

Researchers have developed a microscopic 3D-printed optical device that can efficiently combine light from dozens of small semiconductor lasers into a single multimode optical fiber with very low loss ...

Over the past century, the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere has increased dramatically. This rise has contributed to global warming and led to many harmful effects, including shifting ...

Danforth Center scientists Tessa Burch-Smith and Kirk Czymmek, in collaboration with researchers at the CryoEM Facility at Stanford University, are embarking on a pioneering initiative to develop new ...

Researchers have developed a PFAS-free dual-layer sol-gel and hydrophobic silica coating that repels water, dust, and dirt while maintaining high light transmission for solar panels. The transparent, ...

Researchers characterized two moisture-swing polymers for direct air capture, finding that macropore structure governs CO2 sorption capacity and kinetics.

When is it worth destroying a device to understand it? This article examines how destructive physical analysis resolves structural uncertainty in FA.

A new study suggests that a simple combination of recycled rubber powder and nano-silica could make concrete far more resistant to damaging freeze–thaw cycles while also improving sustainability.

Wrinkle structures are small ridges and pits in rock, often made by microbial mats. They’re best known from Precambrian and Cambrian strata, where they serve as important evidence of early life, and ...

The perfluorocarbon coatings could reduce infections and blood clots in devices made with materials like PTFE, silicone and polyurethane.

The Thomas Hardye School in Dorchester was presented with the STEM Clubs Quality Mark Gold Award, a national award looking to celebrate ...

Researchers have developed a microscopic 3D-printed optical device that can efficiently combine light from dozens of small semiconductor lasers into ...
