Artist impression of new nanostrings that can vibrate for a very long time. These nanostrings vibrate more than 100,000 times per second. Because it’s difficult for energy to leak out, it also means environmental noise…
The thinnest lens on Earth, made of concentric rings of tungsten disulphide (WS2), uses excitons to efficiently focus light. The lens is as thick as a single layer of WS2, just three atoms thick. The…
NASA’s X-59, seen in this illustration, is designed to fly faster than sound but generate quieter sonic “thumps” rather than booms. To test the public’s perception of this noise, part of the Quesst plan includes…
Stanford’s Wu Tsai Neurosciences Institute has developed an AI model called a topographic deep artificial neural network (TDANN) that mimics the brain’s organization of visual information. This model, which uses naturalistic inputs and spatial constraints,…
TMOS researchers have created a lightweight infrared filter for eyewear that enables vision in both infrared and visible light, enhancing night-time safety and convenience. Credit: SciTechDaily.com Researchers have developed a groundbreaking thin infrared filter for…
Researchers have developed a tandem solar cell combining antimony selenide and perovskite, achieving over 20% efficiency, demonstrating significant potential in enhancing solar power conversion and exceeding traditional efficiency limits. A tandem cell was constructed using…
