Scientists used 2D boron nitride crystals to build nano-discs that trap light and create polaritons. These nano-discs concentrate light in thousands of times smaller volume than is possible with any other material. The technique could be used to...
Physicists develop a new model to better control an array of square-shaped nanomagnets. The technique could be useful in high capacity data storage, and micro- and nanosurgery. Over the last couple of decades, there has been a keen interest in...
DNA or Deoxyribonucleic acid is a chain of organic molecules that caries unique genetic code and instructions which are necessary for any organism and even some viruses to evolve. They live in almost every cell of our body. The discovery of DNA, its...
Oceans are the largest source of uranium on Earth and researchers have found a way to extract them. They’ve developed a yarn-like material that attracts and holds uranium from seawater. So far, they’ve made 5 grams of yellowcake from...
Physicists have developed a theoretical model that can make thermoelectric materials 5 times more efficient than what we have today. A topological Semimetals, lead tin selenide, under an extremely strong magnetic field, can transform 18% of heat...
Science is a fascinating subject, it’s something that no one gets bored of (at least geeks like us). We use science to complete different tasks in our day-to-day life. Knowledge of science is basically the reason why we are the most advanced...
The new photonic fiber could serve as a continuous pressure sensor. It’s fabricated from thin layers of transparent stretchable materials. These multiple layers reflect light, producing different colors. It could be used in compression...
Researchers predicted a new type of dibaryon – particle with 6 quarks instead of usual 3. To do this, they created quantum chromodynamics simulations on K computer. It is made up of 2 Omega baryons, called di-Omega, containing 3 quarks each...
Scientists build a consistent, accurate numeral model of the yearly water cycle on Mars. They’ve included all minor parameters that affect Mars hydrological circulation. They’ve also measured the atmospheric distribution and density of...
Researchers discover a method that allows water-repelling surfaces to boil water effectively under certain conditions. It makes these surfaces stay cooler than water-attracting surfaces. Hydrophobic surfaces can be used to cool high power...
Scientists used high sound waves to levitate water droplets to identify impurities in water. This technique helped them to detect small scale heavy elements like cadmium and barium, within few minutes. It could be used by pharmaceutical...
Researchers have found a new high-temperature superconductive material – actinium hydrides. They also created a method to measure hydrides superconductivity using the periodic table. Superconductivity is the capability of specific material...
