The field of materials science has witnessed significant strides in elucidating how the arrangement of electrons within solids dictates their optical behaviour and other functional properties. By ...

The energy density of supercapacitors -- battery-like devices that can charge in seconds or a few minutes -- can be improved by increasing the 'messiness' of their internal structure. Researchers used ...

In a study published in Science, researchers used silver nanoparticles to assemble a theorized, but never-before observed crystal metallic structure.

Researchers recently published findings that could lay the groundwork for applying quantum computing methods to protein structure prediction. Researchers from Cleveland Clinic and IBM recently ...

In his 1960 book Theory and Design in the First Machine Age, the critic and historian Reyner Banham presciently noted a growing chasm between technological change and the capacity of designers to ...
