In a study published in Science, researchers results suggest that the lubricating properties of polyelectrolyte brushes in multivalent solution are hindered relative to those in monovalent solution.

In a recent study published in Nature Communications, researchers at the Center for Nanoscale Materials shed light on the design of materials that exhibit highly anisotropic thermal dissipation properties.

In a recent study published in Nature Materials, researchers provide new guidelines for evaluating displacive models and hence the piezoelectric properties of environmentally friendly next-generation materials.

In a study published in Nanoscale, Argonne researchers demonstrate, using a combination of microscopies, the mechanisms by which bacteria are killed, emphasizing the dependence upon pillar density and tip geometry.

In a study published in Nature Nanotechnology, researchers demonstrated tailoring of the energy landscape of interacting ​‘particles’ using artificial-spin-ices provides a new paradigm for the design of geometric frustration

In a study published in Scientific Reports, researchers reported results support the recently proposed odd-parity nematic state characterized by a nodal gap of Eu symmetry in SrxBi2Se3.

In a study published in Nano Letters, researchers found that stress induced by metal electrodes directly impacts the ability to control positions of potential minima where quantum dots form and the coupling between neighboring quantum dots.

In a study published in Nanoscale, researchers show that the variability seen in devices that operate by filament formation and dissolution is linked to differences in device starting local microstructure.

In a recent study published in Nature Communications, researchers at the Center for Nanoscale Materials used lasers to irradiate a plasmonic system of gold over glass to better understand the behavior of ultrafast nonthermal and thermal carriers.
