Interview with: Dr. Jaime Ortiz-López from the Instituto Politécnico Nacional in Mexico City
Even at large scales, the amount of friction between two silicon surfaces is determined by microscopic chemical bonds between them.
Researchers have used piezoelectric nanoparticles to investigate the physical forces at play in non-Newtonian fluids.
porous iron has great potential as a scaffold for bone repair
A 1% bend in an organic semiconductor based on single crystals of the hydrocarbon rubrene can roughly double the speed of electrons flowing through it.
