Home > Press > Self-assembled microspheres of silica to cool surfaces without energy consumptionAbstract:Researchers from the ICN2 and the ICMM-CSIC have developed a new material able to cool another one by emitting infrared radiation. The results are published in Small and are expected to be used in devices where an...

A cheaper way to scale up atomic layer deposition

Nov 11, 2019 (Nanowerk News) Atomic layer deposition (ALD) involves stacking layers of atoms on top of each other like pancakes. The atoms come from a vaporized material called a precursor. ASD is a well-established technique for manufacturing microelectronics like semiconductors and magnetic heads for sound recording, as well as...
