Under the threat of climate change and geopolitical tensions related to fossil fuels, the world faces an urgent need to find ...

Tokyo University of Science researchers developed a groundbreaking thin-film electrolyte, improving oxide-ion conductivity ...

Thin films play a crucial role in the fabrication of several components and devices, such as protective coatings, integrated circuits, solar cells, and optical ...

Their study has been published in the journal Science Advances. "Instead of increasing the power on the neutron source, which is extremely expensive, it's better to focus on improving optics," says ...

Conventional methods of characterizing and troubleshooting plasma-based thin-film processes frequently lack the ability to capture the full intricacies of the plasma system. Often, efforts rely on ...

Scientists observed record-breaking electron mobility — seven times higher than in conventional semiconductors — with a material made from the same elements as quartz and gold. When you purchase ...

The new solar cell can be applied to almost any surface. Image: Oxford University. Scientists at the University of Oxford last week (9 August) revealed a breakthrough in solar PV technology via an ...

Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) offer a clean alternative to fossil fuel-based power generation, but their high operating ...
