Materials Sciences

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.

Solar energy collectors grown from seeds

Engineers create seeds for growing near-perfect 2D perovskite crystals. Rice University engineers have created microscopic seeds for growing remarkably uniform 2D perovskite crystals that are both stable and highly efficient…

Materials research using ultra-short pulse laser source

University of Bayreuth has large-scale device at its disposal. The engineering sciences at the University of Bayreuth recently acquired a unique laser device equipped with an ultra-short pulse laser source…

Changing a 2D material’s symmetry can unlock its promise

New material could remove respiratory droplets from air

‘Every droplet effectively removed from indoor air would eliminate a potential source of transmission’. Although plexiglass barriers are seemingly everywhere these days — between grocery store lanes, around restaurant tables…

From milk protein, a plastic foam that gets better in a tough environment

A new high-performance plastic foam developed from whey proteins can withstand extreme heat better than many common thermoplastics made from petroleum. A research team in Sweden reports that the material,…

Novel materials: Sound waves traveling backwards

Researchers of the 3D matter made to order cluster of excellence use rotons for metamaterials – Nature Communications publishes first results. Acoustic waves in gases, liquids, and solids usually travel…
