MOCHI uses microscopic, air-filled channels to stop heat in its tracks while remaining nearly crystal clear. If scaled up, it could transform windows into powerful energy savers and solar harvesters.

Despite significant advancements in pharmaceutical sciences, conventional drug delivery system remains limited by issues like poor permeability, toxicity, suboptimal efficacy, and inadequate targeting ...

Silicon is the best-known semiconductor material. However, controlled nanostructuring drastically alters the material's properties. Using a specially developed etching apparatus, a team has now ...

Using a specially developed etching apparatus, researchers produced mesoporous silicon layers with countless tiny pores and investigated their electrical and thermal conductivity. (Nanowerk News) ...

(a) SEM images of MC; (b) SEM images of PEI-600@MC; (c) EDS analysis; (d)TEM images of MC; (e) TEM images of PEI-600@MC. The study focuses on the synthesis of mesoporous biochar (MC) derived from ...

Along with biocompatibility, MSNs boast a high surface area and facile surface tunability. The former has led to MSNs being described as "nanosponges", as their high surface area allows particles to ...
