In the most powerful X-ray facilities in the world, scientists can analyze samples so small they contain only 10,000 atoms. Smaller sizes have proved exceedingly difficult to achieve, but a multi-institutional team has scaled down to a single atom.
Electrochemistry is a hot field. Argonne is elevating its role in the University of Illinois Chicago’s Next Generation Electrochemistry workshop, which attracts the next generation of scientists to study the quickly expanding field.
Researchers have a new scientific tool called Polybot, combining the power of artificial intelligence with robotics. Potential applications include speeding up the discovery of wearable biomedical devices, materials for better batteries and more.
In a Nano Convergence paper, scientists report that CsPbBr3 nanoplatelets (less than three monolayers in thickness) have optical properties conducive to light-emitting technologies
