New research suggests that content warnings may unintentionally diminish appreciation of visual art while amplifying negative ...

A study suggests that sapphire could enhance surfaces to be anti-glare, anti-fogging, dust-resistant, and scratch-free.

Due to the unique properties driving their deformation, these materials can sometimes behave and change shape in unexpected ways. Researchers at Princeton University carried out a study closely ...

According to Worcester Polytechnic Institute research, the benefits include a smaller carbon footprint and stronger domestic ...

Scientists at the University of Surrey embedded alumina nanoparticles into perovskites to trap unwanted iodine compounds that tend to supercharge perovskites’ oxidation process. The team successfully ...

Microplastics provide an excellent bacterial breeding ground that may be contributing to the growing problem of ...

"Our Sun (Sol) is marked by a black hexagon, and its orbital path is indicated by a grey solid line (top row only). Alpha Centauri's location and path are shown by a yellow star and a solid blue line ...

Chinese scientists have recently achieved the fabrication of single-atom-layer metals with a thickness of merely one-millionth the thickness of an A4 paper sheet, setting a new record for the thinnest ...

The microscopic shards of plastic found in every corner of the planet may be exacerbating antibiotic resistance, a new study has found. Bacteria exposed to these ubiquitous fragments, known as ...
