A multimodal light manipulator

Interferometers, devices that can modulate aspects of light, play the important role of modulating and switching light signals in fiber-optic communications networks and...

Cleverly designed carbon nanohoop enables controlled release of iron

Researchers have developed a molecular system for controlled release of iron. They integrated ferrocene, a molecular sandwich that encloses an iron atom, with...

Scientists discovered chemical oscillations in palladium nanoparticles, paving the way for recycling precious metal catalysts

Scientists have for the first time filmed the real-time growth and contraction of Palladium nanoparticles, opening new avenues for utilising and recycling precious...

Physics meets art: A new twist on interference patterns

Researchers have discovered brand new interference patterns in twisted two-dimensional tungsten ditelluride lattices. These so-called moir patterns can be tuned to look like...

New approach makes one type of clean fuel production 66% more efficient

Researchers have uncovered a more efficient way to turn carbon dioxide into methanol, a type of alcohol that can serve as a cleaner...

We know nanoplastics are a threat — this new tool can help us figure out just how bad they are

While the threat that microplastics pose to human and ecological health has been richly documented and is well known, nanoplastics, which are smaller...

Metasurfaces: Bilayer device can control many forms of polarized light

Researchers have created a bilayer metasurface made of two stacked layers of titanium dioxide nanostructures, opening new possibilities for structuring light.

Carbon capture could become practical with scalable, affordable materials

Researchers have expanded the potential of carbon capture technology that plucks CO2 directly from the air by demonstrating that there are multiple suitable...

MIT engineers develop a way to mass manufacture nanoparticles that deliver cancer drugs directly to tumors
