Oil and natural gas are vital constituents of our energy ecosystem that need to be transported across long distances.

Sulfide-based all-solid-state batteries (ASSBs), which use a solid electrolyte instead of a liquid one, are emerging as a ...

Over the past decade, the introduction of drug-eluting stents (DES) has revolutionized the field of interventional cardiology. To massively decrease stent restenosis, the DES-type of stent is coated ...

(Nanowerk News) By using Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition approach, Chinese researchers attain DLC (diamond-like carbon)/ TiN (titanium nitride)-coated vertically aligned carbon nanotube (CNT ...

Hot-dip galvanized coatings are famous for their toughness. They are among a handful of industrial coatings with the strength to withstand the adversities of transport and handling without being ...

Diamond-like carbon (DLC) coatings have excellent properties such as high wear resistance, very low friction coefficient, and high corrosion resistance. Because of these excellent properties, DLC ...

Why it matters: AR coatings can reduce reflection losses from over 4% per surface to below 2%, directly boosting efficiency in lenses, lasers, and solar modules. Design breakthroughs: Multilayer ...
