Researchers discover a novel chemistry to protect our crops from fungal...

0
Pathogenic fungi pose a huge and growing threat to global food security. Currently, we protect our crops against fungal disease by spraying them with anti-fungal chemistries, also...

Physicists develop new photon source for tap-proof communication

0
An international team with the participation of Prof. Dr. Michael Kues from the Cluster of Excellence PhoenixD at Leibniz University Hannover has developed a...

Energy-harvesting design aims to turn Wi-Fi signals into usable power

0
Any device that sends out a Wi-Fi signal also emits terahertz waves —electromagnetic waves with a frequency somewhere between microwaves and infrared light. These...

Quantum copycat: Researchers find a new way in which bosons behave...

0
Bosons and fermions, the two classes into which all particles—from the sub-atomic to atoms themselves—can be sorted, behave very differently under most circumstances. While...

Double-walled nanotubes have electro-optical advantages

0
One nanotube could be great for electronics applications, but there's new evidence that two could be tops. Rice University engineers already knew that size matters...

ALMA resolves gas impacted by young jets from supermassive black hole

0
Astronomers obtained the first resolved image of disturbed gaseous clouds in a galaxy 11 billion light-years away by using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array...

Researchers catch light in a funnel

0
Professor Ronny Thomale holds a chair for theoretical condensed matter physics, the TP1, at the Julius-Maximilian University of Würzburg. The discovery and theoretical description...

Optimizing efficiency of quantum circuits

0
Quantum circuits, the building blocks of quantum computers, use quantum mechanical effects to perform tasks. They are much faster and more accurate than the...

3-D printed sensors could make breath tests for diabetes possible

0
The production of highly sensitive sensors is a complex process: It requires many steps and the almost dust-free environment of special cleanrooms. A research...

A new ‘gold standard’ for safer ceramic coatings

0
Making your own ceramics can be a way to express your creativity, but some techniques and materials used in the process could spell bad...

Planetary defenders validate asteroid deflection code

0
Planetary defense researchers at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) continue to validate their ability to accurately simulate how they might deflect an Earth-bound asteroid...
