A Finnish team used a one-step method for polydimethylsiloxane encapsulated perovskite solar cells that simultaneously provide anti-reflective light management and shielding from oxygen and ...

Next-generation electronic, photonic or spintronic devices will be based on nanoscale functional units, such as quantum dots, isolated spin centres or single-molecule magnets. The key challenge is the ...

Researchers from the Madurai Kamaraj University in India have claimed pouch lamination – of the sort routinely used to strengthen documents by sealing them in a sturdy plastic covering – could be used ...

Researchers are searching for tiny components that function reliably in increasingly narrow electronic configurations. Promising elements include the chemical compounds indium selenide and gallium ...

Words are slippery. Like Humpty Dumpty proclaimed in Lewis Carroll’s Through the Looking Glass, “When I use a word, it means just what I choose it to mean — neither more nor less.” Certainly the ...
