Breakthrough in 'wonder' materials paves way for flexible tech
Researchers measured the electronic structure of stacks of 2D 'wonder' materials
22-Feb-2017
Dr Neil Wilson in the Department of Physics has developed a new technique to measure the electronic structures of stacks of two-dimensional materials -- flat, atomically thin, highly conductive, and extremely strong materials - for the first time. Multiple stacked layers of 2D materials -- known ...
Molecular phenomenon discovered by advanced NMR facility
21-Feb-2017
Cutting edge technology has shown a molecule self-assembling into different forms when passing between solution state to solid state, and back again - a curious phenomenon in science - says research by the University of Warwick. Professor Steven P. Brown from the Department of Physics, with ...
Scientists unveil first method for controlling the growth of metal crystals
30-May-2014
Researchers have announced the first ever method for controlling the growth of metal-crystals from single atoms. Published in Nature Communications and developed at the University of Warwick, the method, called Nanocrystallometry, allows for the creation of precise components for use in ...
Möbius strip ties liquid crystal in knots
22-Aug-2013
University of Warwick scientists have shown how to tie knots in liquid crystals using a miniature Möbius strip made from silica particles. By tying substances like this in knots, the researchers hope to understand how their intricate configurations and unique properties can be harnessed in the ...
Alternative to fullerenes in organic solar cells
17-Dec-2012
An insight into the properties of fullerene is set to open the door to a new class of electronic acceptors which can be used to build better and cheaper organic solar cells. Organic solar cells have advanced a great deal since they were first invented nearly 20 years ago, but the fullerene ...
Synthetic diamond steps closer to next generation of high performance electrochemical applications
Element Six and the University of Warwick partnership explores electrochemical properties of boron-doped synthetic diamond electrodes
02-Jul-2012
Element Six and academic researchers from the University of Warwick's Departments of Chemistry and Physics, have demonstrated the key factors that determine the electrochemical properties of metal-like boron-doped synthetic diamond. The research shows that boron-doped synthetic diamond has ...
Nanodiamonds cut through dirt to bring back 'bling' to low-temperature laundry
28-Jun-2012
Nanodiamonds, pieces of carbon less than ten-thousandths the diameter of a human hair, have been found to help loosen crystallized fat from surfaces in a project led by research chemists at the University of Warwick that transforms the ability of washing powders to shift dirt in eco friendly low ...
Biomimetic polymer synthesis enhances structure control
04-May-2012
A new biomimetic approach to synthesising polymers will offer unprecedented control over the final polymer structure and yield advances in nanomedicine, researchers say.In a University of Warwick-led study published in the journal Nature Chemistry, researchers from the UK (Prof Rachel O’Reilly, ...
Researchers develop golden window electrodes for organic solar cells
12-Apr-2011
Researchers at the University of Warwick have developed a gold plated window as the transparent electrode for organic solar cells. Contrary to what one might expect, these electrodes have the potential to be relatively cheap since the thickness of gold used is only 8 billionths of a metre. ...
Pivoting hooks of graphene's chemical cousin could revolutionize work of electron microscopes
03-Nov-2010
The single layer material Graphene was the subject of a Nobel prize this year but research led by a team of researchers at the University of Warwick has found molecular hooks on the surface of its close chemical cousin, Graphene Oxide, that will potentially provide massive benefits to researchers ...
