Physicists finally figured out why despite being a nonstick pan, food still gets stuck on them. Their findings could help refine some industrial processes.
Scientists looked at the skin-deep sidewinder snakes to understand how these snakes could navigate sandy surfaces, like the deserts in Africa, the Middle East, and North America.
New research shows superconductivity behavior when tri-layer graphene is used with a magic angle. Researchers used two sheets of carbon allotropes -- graphene, stacked atop each other as it morphs into an unconventional superconductor that allows electric currents to pass through with no resistance or energy waste.
Most naturally-formed diamonds are from the Earth's mantle, generally understood to be formed as carbon is exposed to extreme temperature and pressure. A new study looks at the effects of a new parameter - electric fields - in the formation of these precious minerals.
A new material, classified as a perovskite, can reportedly convert sunlight to electricity as a potentially cheaper and more scalable alternative to today’s silicon-based solar cells.
Butterflies create a pocket with their wings that added a thrust to take off. Scientists believe that understanding this can help in improving the design of flapping drones.
