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.
Study finds atomic-scale ordering of elements in a metallic alloy that is responsible for alloy’s increased strength. The Science Metal alloys are materials that contain two or more atomic metal…
Metamaterials, made up of small, repeated structures, engineered to produce desired interactions with light or sound waves, can improve optical devices used in telecommunications, imaging and more. But the functionality…
Researchers from KTH Royal Institute of Technology and Stanford University have fabricated a material for computer components that enable the commercial viability of computers that mimic the human brain. Electrochemical…
Mass-producing nanoribbons for cutting-edge electronics and catalysts. Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have succeeded in using nanowires of a transition-metal chalcogenide to make atomically thin “nanoribbons”. Bundles of nanowires were exposed…
Two-dimensional materials are incredibly thin. Typically only an atom thick, 2D materials exhibit highly desirable properties for advanced technologies, such as flexibility, superconductivity and more. Made from carefully transitioning individual…
Nature Paper Advances Design of Nanomaterials with Tailored Infrared and Thermal Properties. Scientists and engineers collaborating across seven universities and two national laboratories have made a fundamental discovery about the…
