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.

Fast-as-lightning 3D microprinting with two lasers

Joining forces: Researchers from the Cluster of Excellence “3D matter made to order” print microstructures by crossing red and blue laser beams – publication in Nature Photonics. Printing objects from…

‘Smart plastic’ material is step forward toward soft, flexible robotics and electronics

Inspired by living things from trees to shellfish, researchers at The University of Texas at Austin set out to create a plastic much like many life forms that are hard…

Automatic drawing machine for making paper-based metamaterials

New approach creates metamaterials that are light, thin and flexible. Researchers have developed an automatic drawing machine that uses pens and pencils to draw metamaterials onto paper. They demonstrated the…

Scientists develop a new kind of printable, wearable insect repellent

A new type of insect-repellent delivery device has been developed by scientists from the Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg (MLU). With the help of a 3D printer, the active ingredient is…

Graphene boosts flexible and wearable electronics

New Caltech research demonstrates how the honeycombed material can enhance electronics. At 200 times stronger than steel, graphene has been hailed as a super material of the future since its…

‘Astonishing’ morphing properties of honeycomb-like material

A series of buzzing, bee-like “loop-currents” could explain a recently discovered, never-before-seen phenomenon in a type of quantum material. The findings from researchers at the University of Colorado Boulder may…
