3D reflectors help boost data rate in wireless communications
Mar 08, 2024 (Nanowerk News) The next generation of wireless communication not only requires greater bandwidth at higher frequencies – it also needs a little extra time. Cornell researchers have developed a semiconductor chip that adds a necessary time delay so signals sent across multiple arrays can align at a...
2D bimetallic MOF-derived selenium electrocatalysts for water splitting
Mar 08, 2024 (Nanowerk News) Transition metal selenides have been considered to be a good choice for electrocatalytic water splitting. In addition, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have been used to make catalysts with good electrocatalytic capabilities. Traditionally, the MOF-derived selenides are produced via the self-sacrificing MOF template methods. However, this strategy...
Bioresorbable multilayer films enable long-lasting bioelectronic implants
Mar 08, 2024 (Nanowerk Spotlight) Imagine a tiny bioelectronic device, implanted beneath your skin, that could continuously monitor your vital signs, precisely deliver drugs, or even stimulate your muscles and nerves to treat a variety of conditions. Now imagine if, after a pre-programmed period of time, this device would simply...
