New research demonstrates that novel probe technology based on flexible membranes can replace conventional atomic force microscopy (AFM) cantilevers for applications such as fast topographic imaging, ...

(Nanowerk News) Scientists from the National University of Singapore (NUS) have pioneered a new methodology of fabricating carbon-based quantum materials at the atomic scale by integrating scanning ...

Materials that contain special polymer molecules may someday be able to warn us when they are about to fail, researchers said. Engineers have improved their previously developed force-sensitive ...

Electrical resistivity is a basic property that quantifies a material’s opposition to current flow—it’s the reciprocal of conductivity. The resistivity of a material depends upon several factors, ...
