Engineers create seeds for growing near-perfect 2D perovskite crystals. Rice University engineers have created microscopic seeds for growing remarkably uniform 2D perovskite crystals that are...

Scientists have captured the real-time electrical activity of a beating heart, using a sheet of graphene to record an optical image — almost like...

New study shows that when a power system combines energy storage and solar power generation, the end result is greater than the sum of...

Imagine you’re a fisherman living by a lake with a rowboat. Every day, you row out on the calm waters and life is good. But...

To the human eye, most stationary objects appear to be just that — still, and completely at rest. Yet if we were handed a quantum...

Ultrathin, flexible computer circuits have been an engineering goal for years, but technical hurdles have prevented the degree of miniaturization necessary to achieve high...

Killer whales have complex social structures including close "friendships", according to a new study that used drones to film the animals. The findings show that...

Sometimes photos cannot truly capture a scene. How much more epic would that vacation photo of Niagara Falls be if the water were moving? Researchers at...

Researchers have developed a way to dynamically switch the surface of liquid metal between reflective and scattering states. This technology could one day be used...

When lithium ions flow in and out of a battery electrode during charging and discharging, a tiny bit of oxygen seeps out and the...

In a major scientific leap, University of Queensland researchers have created a quantum microscope that can reveal biological structures that would otherwise be impossible...

Researchers found that wings that can morph in continuous 3D shapes could help keep drones stable in gusts of wind and perhaps help them...
