When viruses travel through the air in tiny droplets, they can quickly start to dry out. Yet many viruses remain infectious after rehydration—something that is still not fully understood. Now, an ...

Accelerated aging tests reveal spatially non-uniform degradation in perovskite solar cells, enhancing understanding of stability and performance under stress.

A mild oxalic-acid-based hydrometallurgical process enables efficient indium recovery from indium tin oxide in solar cell waste while simultaneously releasing silver grids. The approach achieves ...

Earth and the Moon both record evidence of a 'lost' period of bombardment. (NASA) Tiny crystal grains trapped inside a meteorite may be the key that unlocks a hidden era in the Solar System's history ...

Unlike almost every other kind of microscope, atomic-force microscopes (AFMs) don’t use any kind of optical beam to image ...

A new study establishes an experimentally validated basis for predicting excitonic properties via dielectric screening.

Materials scientists at Rice University have developed a new workflow methodology for measuring microscopic defects in ...

Superconductivity, a phenomenon in which electricity flows without resistance, is considered the core of quantum computers ...
