Materials management deals with the research, development, manufacturing and processing of raw and industrial materials. Key aspects here are biological and medical issues, which play an increasingly important role in this field.
innovations-report offers in-depth articles related to the development and application of materials and the structure and properties of new materials.
The valence of Mn changes from 4 to 3 under various conditions. Professor Hiromi Nakano of Toyohashi University of Technology used a material with a unique periodical structure (smart material:…
A collaborative research team, led by the University of Liverpool, has discovered a new inorganic material with the lowest thermal conductivity ever reported. This discovery paves the way for the…
Placing a 2D Bose-Einstein condensate in the vicinity of a graphene layer confers superconductivity to the material. Superconductivity is a physical phenomenon where the electrical resistance of a material drops…
Max Planck scientists publish their latest findings in the journal Nature Materials. Hydrogen – the smallest of all atoms and yet becoming more and more important in terms of climate…
The absorption of energy from laser light by free electrons in a liquid has been demonstrated for the first time. Until now, this process was observed only in the gas…
New findings in a new material bring us closer to understanding superconductivity. The discovery of the first high-temperature superconductor in 1986 brought with it the hope that superconductivity would one…
