Demystifying nanocrystal solar cells Date: January 28, 2015 Source: ETH Zurich Summary: Researchers have developed a comprehensive model to explain how electrons flow inside new types of solar ...

The research, led by Macquarie University in Sydney, Australia and Purdue University, builds on the team's earlier success in developing a way to control the length of time light from a luminescent ...

The little nanocrystal was now ready to be a building block on larger scales, and my research expanded to the study of how to create spatial arrangements of nanocrystals in 3D.

Nanocrystal transformers: Researchers observe structural transformations in single nanocrystals Date: July 10, 2011 Source: DOE/Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory ...

A high-quality, flexible transistor, made entirely from colloidal nanocrystals, has been developed by a team in the US. By sequentially depositing their components in the form of nanocrystal “inks,” ...

Ideally, we protect the body from radiation damage before it reaches us with shielding materials. Researchers have now developed a new nanocrystal treatment that could prevent some of the tissue ...

Often called artificial solids, nanocrystal superlattices can be engineered to have a range of electronic, photonic and other desirable physical properties that could have technological applications.

The new nanocrystal gel switches states from a gel state (left) to a liquid state (right) in response to temperature. Top center is an illustration of the linker that holds the nanocrystals ...

Gorgeous Nanocrystal Flowers Sprout Under Electron Microscope. Crystals aren’t typically rounded, soft, or organic-looking. But the precipitates built by Wim Noorduin resemble irises, ...

With NanoCrystal Electricity, your blender will crush ice and whip up some frozen margaritas - wire-free. Once other large companies realize the potential of this technology, it won't be long ...

Ultrasonic nanocrystal surface modification restores corrosion resistance in sensitized stainless steel by equalizing chromium concentration in depleted regions, eliminating the need for heat ...
