A new method in electron microscopy enables sub-20-picometer targeting of individual atoms without prior exposure, opening the door to atom-specific analysis and control. (Nanowerk Spotlight) ...

Electron beam method enables high-yield graphdiyne synthesis in seconds under ambient conditions, offering a fast route to carbon-based catalytic materials. But it differs in a key way: its structure ...

As the name implies, the Short Beam Shear test subjects a beam to bending, just as flexural testing methods do, but the beam is very short relative to its thickness. For example, ASTM D 2344 1 ...

Post and beam and timber frame are both beautiful methods of building but most people think of them as one and the same. Although they are similar, there are subtle differences between them. Both are ...

The core of this system is its optical power beaming platform, which uses a specialized 3-dimensional photovoltaic (PV) receiver paired with an LED light source. This setup not only allows for ...
