Researchers at the University of New South Wales (UNSW) have developed a new method for designing tiny 3D materials that could make fuel cells more
It’s the lightest-ever version of the familiar chemical element oxygen, with only three neutrons to its eight protons. Oxygen is one of the most abundant
What’s your impression of chemists? People with a white lab coat? People working with test tubes? People mixing colourful solutions in the lab? How about
This month we sat down with Famelab runner-up Ben McAllister to discuss one of the biggest mysteries in science, Dark Matter. Q: Dark matter theory
Scientists have discovered a new method to make silicon chips that communicate via light. Current chip technology faces a bottleneck in data speed transfers and
Researchers have created a new kind of 3D-printing platform that uses ink containing living bacteria. The new ink makes it possible to print small biochemical
The spin of the strongest tornado is a pale shadow of the vortex at the heart of matter colliding into a nearly perfect fluid, according
Researchers from the University of Michigan have developed a new semiconducting alloy that could mean a huge leap forward for next generation solar cells. The
A new foam, called Oleo Sponge, easily absorbs oil from water. And, it’s reusable. It can even pull dispersed oil from the entire water column—not
A fluorescent dye called BODIPY could be an ideal material for stockpiling energy in rechargeable, liquid-based batteries that could one-day power cars and homes, say
New research confirms a decades-old theory describing the dynamics of continuous phase transitions. The findings, published in Science, provide the first clear demonstration of the
