Reading tips
-
After understanding the relationship between microstructure and properties in superalloy, scientists apply treatment that leaves this material even stronger and resistant at high temperatures, allowing its use in electric generators and nuclear reactors (Science Advances). Know more.
-
Scientists find experimental evidence that two-dimensional CrI3 material can behave as a magnetic topological insulator without having an external magnetic field, and point to the possibility of using the material in spintronics (Physical Review X). Know more.
-
Inspired by plant leaves, a polymer with a micro-channel network through which fluids circulate regulates its own temperature and generates thermoelectric energy, promising applications in health, civil construction, aerospace industry and more (Scientific Reports). Know more.
-
Scientists develop a transmission electron microscopy tool to study the interaction of light and matter in individual particles at the nano scale in real time and at very high resolution (Scientific Reports). Know more.
