2+ hour, 49+ min ago   (449+ words) citybuzz - A recent study published in eScience challenges the long-held belief that smaller, faster-departing bubbles are always better for water electrolysis. The research, conducted by teams from East China University of Science and Technology and Southern University of Science and…...

2+ hour, 3+ min ago   (440+ words) Researchers have lacked a reliable way to determine the complex atomic structures of material interfaces that affect how materials perform, degrade, and fail. Professor Chris Wolverton, PhD candidate Chang-ti Chou Small but mighty grain boundaries and interfaces are found in…...

5+ hour, 41+ min ago   (533+ words) A new chemical process can transform three of the most common plastics into high-purity hydrogen without sorting them first. The technique operates at much lower temperatures than traditional gasification and captures most of the plastic’s carbon in solid or liquid…...

4+ hour, 28+ min ago   (398+ words) In twisted bilayer WSe₂, the Ising-type spin-orbit coupling that the material inherits from bulk WSe₂ locks electron spin to valley: spin-up electrons live in valley K, spin-down electrons in valley K'. This coupling places three VHS at momenta P₁, P₂, P₃ in valley K and…...

5+ hour, 15+ min ago   (315+ words) A new Concordia study has demonstrated a greener way to produce an important class of catalytic materials with promising potential to produce cleaner energy technologies that relies more on acoustic energy than water and chemicals. Many of the advanced materials…...
