Molecule-based magnets like vanadium tetracyanoethylene are extremely sensitive to air, impeding their use in practical quantum devices. Researchers coated vanadium tetracyanoethylene with an ...

Bubbles created by pressurized water can directed at surfaces and trigger cavitation, the continued creation and collapse of bubbles. The addition of an ultrasonic transducer helps reinforce this ...

This appendix reviews various coating process technologies: diffusion coating, thermal spray (particulate deposition), physical vapor deposition (atomistic or molecular transfer), and sputtering ...

Living bacteria embedded in coatings could clean wastewater, capture carbon and generate biofuels—but only if they survive the manufacturing process. Researchers at the University of Surrey and the ...
