Researchers from the American National Physical Laboratory (NPL) have created the first-of-its-kind optical diode, consisting of light, which can be used in miniature photon and photon-electronic circuits. This optical diode,

The needles are created using 3D printing and water-castide, a renewable, biodegradable thermoplastic material that has been approved for use by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. To achieve the

MIT’s engineering team has created small robotic carpenters to help you bring any custom furniture design to life. To minimize injury and allow woodworkers to focus on design and other

In recent years, Goodyear has brought very unusual tire concepts to Geneva that suggest what the transport of the future will look like. This year was no exception: the company

Thin-film optically transparent materials, which are electrical conductors, are already widely used in modern electronics, including the production of touch displays, computer screens and solar panels. Invisible areas of transparent

More than two billion people on the planet experience a constant shortage of clean drinking water, millions are seriously ill and die due to pollution of water sources and unsanitary

Scientists at the University of Maryland have developed a technology for making ultra-strong wood that can now be used in places where heavier metals and alloys have traditionally been used

Researchers at Northwestern University have developed a new technology to produce metamaterials, materials whose surface is coated with nanostructures that give them unique and exotic optical properties. The key point

Electro-optical modulators are one of the key components of modern fiber optic communication networks. They are an optical analogue of an electronic transistor, only instead of electric current they allow

Scientists at the University of Wisconsin at Madison have found an economical way to synthesize furandicarboxylic acid, which is needed to make recyclable plastic. An article describing the study was
