Existing methods to detect microscopic scratches and imperfections on transparent materials are costly and time-consuming. To tackle this problem, researchers developed a novel non-contact, ...

Researchers from North Carolina State University have created stretchable, transparent conductors that work because of the structures' "nano-accordion" design. The conductors could be used in a wide ...

Can you imagine having a smartphone with a wooden touchscreen? Or a house with wooden windows? Probably not -- unless you've heard of transparent wood. Made by modifying wood's natural structure, this ...

Transparent conductive materials and devices have emerged as pivotal components in a wide range of applications, spanning from modern displays and photovoltaic cells to sensors and flexible ...

Plastics, which are polymeric materials composed of long chains of small molecules called monomers, are widely used in everyday life and industry due to their lightweight, good strength and ...

A research team from the Department of Orthopedics and Traumatology at the University of Hong Kong's LKS Faculty of Medicine (HKUMed) has successfully developed a novel elastic calcium phosphate ...

Transparent materials have become an essential component in a wide variety of technological applications, ranging from everyday electronics like tablets and smartphones to more sophisticated uses in ...
