Dysfunction leading to heart failure starts at the molecular level, so why are not scientists targeting this disease at the molecular level? A new study from Virginia Tech looks at doing just that, ...

Engineers have developed a way to monitor solar cells at a microscopic level while they are operating – to discover exactly how damage caused by ultraviolet light can be naturally repaired.

Researchers at the University of Chicago and the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory have leveraged existing advanced X-ray microscopy techniques to bridge the gap between ...

Spray cooling is one of the most promising methods for cooling high heat flow electronics. Two-phase spray cooling, in particular, has been shown to cool heat fluxes orders of magnitude higher than ...

A glacier's flow depends on how microscopic defects move through the ice, according to new research that also yielded a new model for predicting how glaciers will flow, ultimately contributing to ...

Sonic Soak is a unique cleaning system that uses vibrations to clean almost anything to a microscopic level. The ultrasonic cleaner generates 50,000 vibrations per second using a scientific process ...

A number of applications in engineered diffusion exist in current technology. Some of these advances are applied medically, such as drug patches that allow the sustained slow release of ...

An optical illusion is a fascinating visual trick that deceives the brain into seeing something different from reality. These illusions occur when the information our eyes send to the brain is ...

(Nanowerk News) Spray cooling is one of the most promising methods for cooling high heat flow electronics. Two-phase spray cooling, in particular, has been shown to cool heat fluxes that are orders of ...
