Photovoltaics (PV) are a versatile and compact route to harness solar power. One critical challenge with current PV is preserving the optimal panel orientation angle with respect to the sun for ...
A metabolic research group has developed a recombinant E. coli strain that biosynthesizes 60 different nanomaterials covering 35 elements on the periodic table. Among the elements, the team could ...
A new method uses gold to assemble multi-element nanoparticles under mild conditions, offering improvements in catalytic activity and long-term stability. (Nanowerk Spotlight) The drive to engineer ...
In CRISPR-Cas and related nuclease-mediated genome editing, target recognition is based on guide RNAs (gRNAs) that are complementary to selected DNA regions. While single site targeting is fundamental ...
Alchemy, which attempted to turn cheap metals such as lead and copper into gold, has not yet succeeded. However, with the development of alloys in which two or three auxiliary elements are mixed with ...
A joint research group has successfully developed a "nanoporous super multi-element catalyst" that contains 14 elements which are mixed uniformly at the atomic level and used as a catalyst. This ...
A joint research group led by Research Associate Cai ZeXing and Professor Takeshi Fujita at School of Environmental Science and Engineering, Kochi University of Technology, and Professor Masahiro ...
What Are High-Entropy Alloys? High-entropy alloys (HEAs) are a class of metallic materials composed of five or more principal elements mixed in near-equal atomic proportions, typically between 5 and ...
