Washington, DC-- New work from a team including Carnegie's Guoyin Shen and Yoshio Kono used high pressure and temperature to reveal a kind of "structural memory" in samples of the metal bismuth, a ...

Surprisingly high level of surface contaminations of magnetic stir bars escapes regular cleaning and brings highly reactive traces of metal species from previous experiments to the next ones. With ...

Figure 1: A schematic of the Si–molecule–SWNT device and its fabrication process. A last concern about possible metal-filament behaviour in this system is the residual metallic catalyst materials used ...

New research used high pressure and temperature to reveal a kind of 'structural memory' in samples of the metal bismuth, a discovery with great electrical engineering potential. New work from a team ...
