| Two steps closer to flexible, powerful, fast bioelectronic devices Posted: 24 Apr 2020 12:07 PM PDT Researchers have designed biocompatible ion-driven soft transistors that can perform real-time neurologically relevant computation and a mixed-conducting particulate composite that allows creation of electronic components out of a single material. These have promise for bioelectronic devices that are fast, sensitive, biocompatible, soft, and flexible, with long-term stability in physiological environments such as the human body. In particular, they could facilitate diagnosis and monitoring of neurological disease. |
| Water may look like a simple liquid; however, it is anything but simple to analyze Posted: 24 Apr 2020 10:26 AM PDT Scientists have been able to shed new light on the properties of water at the molecular level. In particular, they were able to describe accurately the interactions between three water molecules, which contribute significantly to the energy landscape of water. The research could pave the way to better understand and predict water behavior at different conditions, even under extreme ones. |
| Palaeontologists reveal 'the most dangerous place in the history of planet Earth' Posted: 24 Apr 2020 10:26 AM PDT 100 million years ago, ferocious predators, including flying reptiles and crocodile-like hunters, made the Sahara the most dangerous place on Earth. |
| Atmospheric tidal waves maintain Venus' super-rotation Posted: 23 Apr 2020 11:30 AM PDT An international research team has revealed that the 'super-rotation' on Venus is maintained near the equator by atmospheric tidal waves formed from solar heating on the planet's dayside and cooling on its nightside. |
| Electronic skin fully powered by sweat can monitor health Posted: 22 Apr 2020 06:36 PM PDT Electronic skin monitors body's vitals signs while being powered by sweat. |
| Spider combs tame unruly nanofibers Posted: 22 Apr 2020 08:23 AM PDT Cribellate spiders spin thousands of tiny nanofibers into sticky threads. To keep from getting caught in their own webs, these spiders use a nonstick comb on their back legs. Now, researchers have patterned an antiadhesive nanostructure inspired by this comb onto a foil surface, creating a handy tool to control sticky lab-made nanomaterials for medical, smart textile and other applications. |
