Graphene-coated solar panel generates Electricity from Rain Drops
Scientists in China are developing a new kind of solar panel that could be used to generate power from rain drops. By using a thin layer of highly conductive graphene, the solar…
E-skin for monitoring body’s oxygen level
University of Tokyo researchers have developed an ultrathin, ultraflexible, protective layer and demonstrated its use by creating an air-stable, organic light-emitting diode (OLED) display. This technology will enable creation of e-skin i-e…
Teslaphoresis: Nanotube wires self-assemble under the influence of Tesla Coil
Scientists at Rice University have discovered that the strong force field emitted by a Tesla coil causes carbon nanotubes to self-assemble into long wires, a phenomenon they call “Teslaphoresis.” The Rice University…
Flexible Sheet Cameras With Elastic Optics
A Team from Columbia Engineering, has developed a novel sheet camera that can be wrapped around everyday objects to capture images that cannot be taken with one or more conventional cameras. The…
