A single study has found that graphene displays superlubricity and that hexagonal boron nitride is as strong as diamond but lighter and more flexible.
Researchers have found another reason why semiconductors lose their ability to carry a charge as they become more densely ‘doped’.
A novel way to measure the band gap of the 2D material molybdenum disulfide has revealed the link between its electronic and optical properties.
Scientists have detected a rare state of matter known as ‘electronic nematic’, in which electrons in a superconducting crystal organize collectively.
Researchers have significantly increased the temperature at which carbon-based materials can act as superconductors.
Using a novel method, scientists have design a material that conducts electricity and emits white light when exposed to electricity.
Scientists have found evidence for a new type of electron pairing that may broaden the search for new high-temperature superconductors.
A combination of experimental and theoretical methods has revealed evidence of superconductivity on ultrathin lithium titanate films.
Researchers have discovered that the thermal properties of a surface influence whether droplets stick to them or bounce off.
By sprinkling copper atoms atop a gold surface, scientists have developed a novel material for creating synthesis gas from carbon dioxide and water.
Researchers have uncovered the role of oxygen in 2D molybdenum disulfide and developed a novel technique for tuning its optical band gaps.

Materials Characterization and HardwareX are teaming up to showcase research that is undertaken using hardware designed by scientists.
Scientists have discovered the mechanism that causes cracks to behave strangely when they spread very rapidly in brittle materials.
Computational modelling with a supercomputer has revealed how different solidification speeds alter the microstructure of a novel alloy.
Using electron microscopy, scientists have discovered that silica nanoparticles form quasicrystals as they grow and evolve.
Detailed tests have helped to reveal why one promising material added to the electrolyte of lithium-air batteries doesn't work as well as expected.
