The poor durability and stability of superhydrophobic materials under various working conditions limit their widespread applications. Zeolite films have attracted considerable attention owing to their ...

In this work, single-light-actuated dual-mode propulsion at the liquid/air interface is realized by using flexible, superhydrophobic, and thermostable photothermal paper made from flexible ultralong ...

Kanazawa University, report in Small, on how short peptides self-assemble linearly on atomically-thick solid surfaces, such ...

This review examines how particle size, surface coating, and aging influence the transport and toxicity of nanoparticles in agricultural ecosystems. Smaller nanoparticles exhibit greater mobility and ...

Researchers use ultrasonic waves to assemble copper nanosheets into uniform, conductive coatings on curved and flexible ...

Jun 12, 2025 Microbots magnetically cut water for programmable fluidics (w/video) A microrobotic tool uses magnetic control and hydrophobic particles to cut water surfaces and create reconfigurable ...

To tackle the shortcomings of conventional nano-YSZ thermal-barrier coatings—infrared semitransparency, low nanoparticle retention, and the formation of partially melted agglomerates during ...
