Cambridge researchers have identified a material that behaves as both a conductor and an insulator. The material, samarium hexaboride (SmB6), acts like an insulator in certain measurements, but ...

The report studies new developments in metal meshes making it a serious contender as a transparent conductor. Previously metal-based transparent conductors would be lumped together in a single ...

Electromagnetic surveying at Pivotal Metals’ Midrim project within the Belleterre project area in Quebec has discovered a new ...

Researchers from Japan and Singapore have developed a 3D printing technique to create conductive metal patterns on the external and internal surfaces of 3D plastic structures. It does not print solid ...

In this interactive activity adapted from NOVA Online, learn how a typical photovoltaic cell converts solar energy into electricity. Explore the components of a photovoltaic cell, including the ...

During very cold weather, bare-handed touching of metal objects can result in a slightly painful freezing of the outer skin. This can give the false impression that metal objects are much colder than ...
