There’s some nifty research from the University of Bayreuth, together with partners in China and the U.S., on creating supremely tough aluminosilicate glass that boasts an unusual structure. The image ...
People who investigate scientific topics either love or hate glass, which is a confusing none-of-the-above unicorn: neither fully liquid nor fully solid, exhibiting some properties of each, but ...
The detailed structure of glass has always been a mystery in science. A research team has now discovered that the amorphous and crystalline metallic glass have the same structural building blocks. And ...
Bifacial solar cells can be encapsulated in modules with either a glass/glass or a glass/ transparent backsheet structure. A glass/backsheet structure works well with conventional PERC modules due to ...
An artificial intelligence that can predict how a piece of glass responds to heat and pressure could one day also be used to model traffic flow. While most solid materials have a regular atomic ...
Researchers have determined the three dimensional (3D) structure of a protein responsible for glass formation in sponges. They explain how the earliest and, in fact, the only known natural ...
Tesla has applied for a patent on new glass technology for better noise reduction and temperature control inside its vehicles. Over the last few years, Tesla has been focusing on material development ...
