This study is conducted by a joint team from Chinese Academy of Sciences. They use aberration-corrected transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Electron-energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) and scanning ...
Over billions of years of evolution, many organisms in nature have exhibited unique surface wettability. For example, lotus leaves have the self-cleaning function. Water striders can walk on water.
A team of researchers has developed a printing technique capable of forming a periodic nano/microstructure on the surface of a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) slab and easily transferring it onto the ...
(Nanowerk Spotlight) Scientists are finding creative ways to leverage the phenomenon of water droplets bouncing off surfaces for functional applications like self-cleaning technology and energy ...
Zinc oxide (ZnO) disc samples doped with copper oxide as the main impurity were prepared and irradiated for 2 min by 1.064 μm semi-train of 20 ps pulses having energy of 80 mJ in a spot size of 5 mm ...
Self-lubricating nickel mold with nano-fillers enables defect-free polymer microstructure production
New nickel-PTFE nanocomposite mold integrates lubricating particles directly into the matrix, achieving over 1,500 defect-free molding cycles without coatings for microfluidic devices. (Nanowerk News) ...
