Tech Xplore / A microfluidic chip monitors gases using integrated, motionless pumps
A new microscale gas chromatography system integrates all fluidic components into a single chip for the first time. The design leverages three Knudsen pumps that move gas molecules using heat differentials to eliminate the ...
Phys.org / New 3D printing ink uses 70% lignin and recycles with water
Additive manufacturing (AM) methods, such as 3D printing, enable the realization of objects with different geometric properties, by adding materials layer-by-layer to physically replicate a digital model. These methods are ...
Phys.org / Silicon metasurfaces boost optical image processing with passive intensity-based filtering
Of the many feats achieved by artificial intelligence (AI), the ability to process images quickly and accurately has had an especially impressive impact on science and technology. Now, researchers in the McKelvey School of ...
Phys.org / Physicists develop new protocol for building photonic graph states
Physicists have long recognized the value of photonic graph states in quantum information processing. However, the difficulty of making these graph states has left this value largely untapped. In a step forward for the field, ...
Phys.org / Climate change is driving rising agricultural water use in Central Asia
Even as farmers shift toward less water-intensive crops, climate change is pushing agricultural water consumption upward in Central Asia. A new study by IAMO researchers shows that rising temperatures and atmospheric water ...
Phys.org / Nanolaser on a chip could cut computer energy use in half
Researchers at DTU have developed a nanolaser that could be the key to much faster and much more energy-efficient computers, phones, and data centers. The technology offers the prospect of thousands of the new lasers being ...
Phys.org / Vulcan rocket launch suffers fiery booster issue but makes it to space, company says
United Launch Alliance suffered yet another fiery burn-through on one of its solid rocket boosters during a national security mission Thursday.
Medical Xpress / HIV antibody opens up new approaches for vaccine development and combination therapies
An international research team has identified a novel HIV antibody that targets the virus at a particularly vulnerable site and overcomes previous limitations of known antibodies. This study, led by Professor Dr. Florian ...
Phys.org / Driven electrolytes are agile and active at the nanoscale
Technologies for energy storage as well as biological systems such as the network of neurons in the brain depend on driven electrolytes that are traveling in an electric field due to their electrical charges. This concept ...
Medical Xpress / Mapping the role of a master regulator in early brain development
New findings from Karolinska Institutet reveal how the gene HNRNPU coordinates several fundamental molecular processes during the earliest stages of human brain development. The study is published in Nucleic Acids Research ...
Phys.org / Yangtze River fishing ban halts seven decades of biodiversity decline
The Yangtze River Basin, a global biodiversity hotspot, has endured severe ecological degradation over several decades due to intense human activity, leading to a marked decline in aquatic biodiversity. In order to halt this ...
Tech Xplore / A key barrier in protonic ceramics may be fading, and hydrogen tech could benefit
A newly developed ceramic material shows record-high proton conductivity at intermediate temperatures while remaining chemically stable, report researchers from Japan. Efficient hydrogen-to-electricity conversion is critical ...
