New ‘twist’ for future electronics
Jan 17, 2025 (Nanowerk News) Imagine a future where your phone, computer or even a tiny wearable device can think and learn like the human brain – processing information faster, smarter and using less energy. A breakthrough approach developed at Flinders University and UNSW Sydney brings this vision closer to...
Nitrogen-doped porous carbon-supported catalysts boost conversion efficiency of carbon dioxide to carbon monoxide
Jan 17, 2025 (Nanowerk Spotlight) The ability to convert carbon dioxide into useful chemicals and fuels could help address rising atmospheric CO2 levels while simultaneously producing valuable industrial feedstocks. The electrochemical reduction of CO2 to carbon monoxide is particularly attractive, as CO serves as a key building block for producing...
Astronomers observe real-time formation of black hole jets for the first time
Jan 17, 2025 (Nanowerk News) A large international team of scientists has observed a phenomenon that astronomers didn’t ever expect to see happen in real time. A new paper published in Astrophysical Journal Letters ("Late-time Radio Brightening and Emergence of a Radio Jet in the Changing-look AGN 1ES 1927+654") led...
X-rays illuminate an exotic material transformation
Jan 17, 2025 (Nanowerk News) A flash of light traps this material in an excited state indefinitely, and new experiments reveal how it happens. A dry material makes a great fire starter, and a soft material lends itself to a sweater. Batteries require materials that can store lots of energy,...
