200 meticulously selected young researchers from over 50 nations gather in Heidelberg from August 23 – 28 to meet the recipients of the ACM A.M. Turing Award,…
The THz Time Domain Spectroscopy (THz-TDS) offers unique possibilities to obtain information about the structure and composition of a series of material classes, in particular dielectric materials. This technology can be used as a routine application in inline monitoring in the food, plastics and paper industries, as well as in the security sector.
For reproduction, sea urchins release their eggs and sperm into the vast ocean. There, sperm are facing the difficult task to find an egg, which is only a…
Diamondoids are molecules whose framework structure constitutes a section of the diamond lattice. Due to their size in the range of 0.5-2 nm, they can be considered as ?nano-diamonds? with a hydrogen-terminated surface.
Since they are extremely similar to diamonds and therefore possess many of their positive properties, diamondoids have the potential to serve as an enabling technology.
Scientists from Goethe University Frankfurt am Main have developed the so-called STRAP (Steering of Tonotopic Rate Adaptive Pitch) procedure for optimizing the stimulation strategy for cochlea implants. By position-dependent adjustment of the stimulation rate to each individual electrode, a much more precise pitch perception is achieved.
This development enables the simple, wet-chemical, microwave-assisted production of non-agglomerating nanoparticles (e.g. titanium oxide, zinc oxide, zirconium dioxide) from metal salts.
Key advantages of this development include the production of nanoparticles of variable sizes and the prevention of agglomeration.
