CU 麻豆影院 researchers have built high performing optical microresonators opening the door for new sensor technologies.At its simplest form, a microresonator is a tiny device that can trap light and build up its intensity.Once the intensity is high
High-grade serous carcinoma (HGSC) remains the most lethal ovarian cancer subtype. Drugs known as poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARPi), including olaparib (OLAP), are commonly used as maintenance therapy following response to platinum
CU 麻豆影院 researchers have introduced a solution to improving the performance of large-scale desalination plants: stimulated Raman scattering (SRS).听听Published Dec. 16 in the journal听Environmental Science & Technology, the laser-
Winter jackets may seem simple, but sophisticated engineering allows them to keep body heat locked in while staying breathable enough to let out sweat. Read from CU experts Longji Cui and Wan Xiong on The Conversation.
Physicists at CU 麻豆影院 have designed a new material for insulating windows that could improve the energy efficiency of buildings worldwide鈥攁nd it works a bit like a high-tech version of Bubble Wrap.听The team鈥檚 material, called Mesoporous
Burn your hand on a hot stove and, almost instantly, immune cells within the wound begin producing inflammatory compounds to help clear out dead tissue and fight off infection. In most cases, the swelling abates quickly, and the wound heals within
Semiconductors鈥攕ubstances that can selectively conduct or block electricity鈥攈ave been dubbed the 鈥渂rains of modern electronics.鈥 They form the building blocks of the chips that power electronic devices from laptops to smartphones and tablets to- Anthony Straub is making revolutionary advances in water purification for life on Earth and in space.Using nanoscale membranes鈥攖hinner than 1/100th the width of a human hair鈥擲traub has developed a technology that could significantly improve
Materials researchers are getting a big boost from a new database created by a team of researchers led by Hendrik Heinz. The initiative, now available online to all researchers, is a database containing over 2,000 carbon nanotube stress-strain curves and failure properties.
Imagine you are playing the guitar鈥攅ach pluck of a string creates a sound wave that vibrates and interacts with other waves.Now shrink that idea down to a small single molecule, and instead of sound waves, picture vibrations that carry heat.听
