Researchers have developed a new image sensor made of perovskite. This semiconductor material enables better colour reproduction and fewer image artefacts with less light, making them well-suited for medical analysis and machine vision.

Researchers report the initial development of a system that inexpensively screens for PD from the odors in a person’s earwax.

Researchers are studying the cell structure of fungi to learn how it determines their mechanical properties and discover what science can learn from mushrooms to create better materials.

Scientists have developed a liquid-phase electron microscopy technique that makes it possible to observe phonon dynamics in nanoparticle self-assemblies. These observations could inspire novel reconfigurable metamaterials.

New research into magnetoelastic coupling has directly confirmed predictions from the Bethe-Slater curve, a concept first theorized in the 1930s. The research also found unexpectedly large magnetoelastic coupling effects in transition metal oxides.

Scientists have developed a new paper-based device that can improve the diagnosis of malaria in asymptomatic people. In field tests in Ghana, the device outperformed the current gold standard methods being used in the country's hospitals.

Scientists have designed a new way to selectively convert CO2 into the useful industrial chemical formate, using a light-activated metal catalyst.

Scientists have developed a new 2D superlattice that boosts the structural stability of zinc-ion battery cathodes, allowing the battery to operate reliably for over 5,000 charge-discharge cycles.

The next generation of batteries may get a lifespan boost, thanks to a new imaging technique that can provide high-resolution images of lithium-metal batteries as they charge.

The first quantum mechanical simulations of quasicrystals have been made possible using a new technique, which also revealed why these disordered crystals are stable enough to exist in the first place.
