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.

Offshore test infrastructure in the North Sea

… enables application-oriented development of marine protective coatings. Marine benthic organisms colonize all available hard substrates – including offshore foundations, leading to altered flow conditions, increased loads, and more difficult…

Stretching metals at the atomic level

… allows researchers to create important materials for quantum, electronic, and spintronic applications. New technique paves the way for easy oxidation of historically “stubborn” metals. A University of Minnesota Twin…

Maximizing excitons as energy carriers

Project aims to understand — and use — this quasiparticle’s role in next-gen optoelectronics. In the U.S. military, the use of sensors can make the difference between life or death…

High-quality 2D films could be one-drop away

A research group led by Professor Minoru Osada (he, him) and postdoctoral researcher Yue Shi (she, her) at the Institute for Future Materials and Systems (IMaSS), Nagoya University in Japan,…

Specially coated titanium reduces risk of clots on prostheses

An international research team led by the german University of Jena has now developed a promising approach to significantly reducing blood clotting on the heart valve material titanium. Around 25,000…

Smart material prototype challenges Newton’s laws of motion

University of Missouri researchers designed a prototype of a small, lightweight active ‘metamaterial’ that can control the direction and intensity of energy waves. For more than 10 years, Guoliang Huang,…
