» Search accurate expression '""Universit'- How to separate nanoparticles by "shape"
In our daily lives, the purpose and function of an item is defined by either its material, e.g. a rain jacket is fabricated of water-proof material, or its shape, e.g. a wheel is round to enable a ... - Develop novel molecular structure analysis technology
Rigaku and Merck have signed a joint development agreement. To develop lab consumables based on highly innovative crystalline sponge technology, which determines the absolute chemical structure of ... - Development of a miniaturised EPR spectrometer
Several research institutions are developing a miniaturized electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) device with industrial partner Bruker to investigate semiconductor materials, solar cells, catalyst... - Apply for the Anton Paar Research Award 2019
Anton Paar is calling for applications for the 2nd Anton Paar Research Award for Instrumental Analytics and Characterization. "We are looking forward to receiving submissions on new methods and/or ... - Sustainable reaction mechanism for the environmentally friendly production of alcohols
Chemists from the University of Bonn and their US colleagues at Columbia University in New York have discovered a novel mechanism in catalysis. It allows the synthesis of certain alcohols more chea... - Exploring water-splitting photocatalysts with neutrons
Solar hydrogen can be produced from water and light in a process called photocatalytic water-splitting and could help to mitigate the impact of climate change, as no fossil fuels are used in its pr... - Nuclear "magic numbers" collapse beyond the doubly magic Nickel 78
Scientists from the RIKEN Nishina Center for Accelerator-Based Research in Japan and an international collaboration network with a strong participation of scientists from Technische Universität Dar... - Source of new CFC emissions discovered
Since 2013, annual emissions of the banned chlorofluorocarbon CFC-11 have increased by around 7,000 metric tons from eastern China, according to a new study by an international team of scientists i... - New hybrid semiconductor material for sustainable hydrogen production
An international team led by TUM chemist Tom Nilges and engineer Karthik Shankar from the University of Alberta have now found a stable yet flexible semiconductor structure that splits water much m... - How cells migrate
When faced with difficult terrain, off-road vehicles can switch from two- to four-wheel drive to keep moving forward. Similarly, cell migration can be driven either by protrusion-directed crawling,... - Software tools for automated acquisition of electron microscopy data
There is a growing demand for high-throughput data acquisition in structural and cell biology research. Developments in microscopy hardware and computing performance have increased the speed and qu... - Copper oxide photocathodes: laser experiment reveals location of efficiency loss
Solar cells and photocathodes made of copper oxide might in theory attain high efficiencies for solar energy conversion. In practice, however, large losses occur. Now a team at the HZB has been abl... - Fuels From Air-conditioning Systems
Researchers at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) and the University of Toronto have proposed a method enabling air conditioning and ventilation systems to produce synthetic fuels from car... - Longest half-life ever directly measured
The universe is almost 14 billion years old, which is an inconceivable length of time by human standards. Compared to some physical processes, however, it is but a moment. There are radioactive nuc... - Carbon nanoelectrode - Particle at the stick
Since they are so tiny, it is difficult to investigate single nanoparticles. However, this is exactly what researchers are aiming for in order to tailor their properties. A novel approach: particle... - 3D printing of biological tissue
The future of medicine is biological - and scientists hope we will soon be using 3D-printed biologically functional tissue to replace irreparably damaged tissue in the body. A team of researcher... - Unique insights into concrete - watching concrete explode
Even if concrete is not flammable, it can be hazardous in tunnel fires: high-performance concrete can explode at high temperatures. Although the phenomenon is well known, the physics behind it have... - Polymers to give early warning signs
Researchers at the University of Fribourg's Adolphe Merkle Institute (AMI) and Hokkaido University in Japan have developed a method to tailor the properties of stress-indicating molecules that can ... - New 3D microscope to visualise fast biological processes
Researchers from EMBL Heidelberg have combined their expertise to develop a new type of microscope. The revolutionary new light-field microscopy system makes it possible to study fast biological pr... - Microscopic Protective Covering for Better Batteries
Lithium-ion batteries are far superior to other rechargeable battery systems due to their long lifetime and high energy density. However, for many applications, such as electric cars, they still fa... - Flexible circuits for 3D printing
A research cooperation between the University of Hamburg and DESY has developed a process suitable for 3D printing that can be used to produce transparent and mechanically flexible electronic circu... - Unlimited access to microbiological research data
