AI technique ‘decodes’ microscope images, overcoming fundamental limit

Researchers have developed a deep learning algorithm for removing systematic effects from atomic force microscopy images, enabling more precise profiles of material surfaces.

Spontaneous curvature the key to shape-shifting nanomaterials

Inspired by nature, nanotechnology researchers have identified 'spontaneous curvature' as the key factor determining how ultra-thin, artificial materials can transform into useful tubes,...

Want fewer microplastics in your tap water? Try boiling it first

Nano- and microplastics are seemingly everywhere -- water, soil and the air. While many creative strategies have been attempted to get rid of...

Researchers harness 2D magnetic materials for energy-efficient computing

Researchers used ultrathin van der Waals materials to create an electron magnet that can be switched at room temperature. This type of magnet...

New disease testing component facilitates lower-cost diagnostics

Biomedical researchers have developed a new, less expensive way to detect nuclease digestion -- one of the critical steps in many nucleic acid...

You may be breathing in more tiny nanoparticles from your gas stove than from car exhaust

Cooking on your gas stove can emit more nano-sized particles into the air than vehicles that run on gas or diesel, possibly increasing...

Graphene research: Numerous products, no acute dangers found by study

Graphene is an enormously promising material. It consists of a single layer of carbon atoms arranged in a honeycomb pattern and has extraordinary...

Plastic recycling with a protein anchor

Polystyrene is a widespread plastic that is essentially not recyclable when mixed with other materials and is not biodegradable. A research team has...
