Jan 12, 2022 (Nanowerk News) A new kind of tiny particle is a big deal in UO chemist Carl Brozek’s lab. He and his team have made a versatile kind of porous material called a metal-organic framework, or MOF, into nanocrystals—a form that’s easier to use beyond the lab. Nanoparticles...
Machine learning for morphable materials
Jan 12, 2022 (Nanowerk News) Flat materials that can morph into three-dimensional shapes have potential applications in architecture, medicine, robotics, space travel, and much more. But programming these shape changes requires complex and time-consuming computations. Now, researchers from the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS)...
