Could plastic have a rival in a combination of wood fibres and spider silk?

The unique material outperforms most of today’s synthetic and natural materials by providing high strength and stiffness, combined with increased toughness. Achieving strength and extensibility at the same time has so far been a great challenge in material engineering: increasing strength has meant losing extensibility and vice versa. Now Aalto University and VTT researchers have

New easy-to-use health test enabled by plasmonic sensors

A biosensor developed at Aalto University enables creating a range of new health tests similar to home pregnancy tests. The plasmonic biosensor can detect diseased exosomes even by the naked eye. Exosomes, important indicators of health conditions, are cell-derived vesicles that are present in blood and urine. A rapid analysis by biosensors helps recognize inflammatory

Seeing both sides of a discussion on social media via a new algorithm

Selected influential users can efficiently spread information on both sides of a controversial discussion. Social media has become an important news source for a majority of adults. A common complaint is that social media help create echo chambers in which people reading information do not expose themselves to different viewpoints but are often confined to

The next generation of power electronics could cut down the global power consumption by up to ten per cent

Physicists at Aalto University have made a breakthrough in revising methods largely discarded 15 years ago. They have discovered a microscopic mechanism that will allow gallium nitride semiconductors to be used in electronic devices that distribute large amounts of electric power. The trick is to be able to use beryllium atoms in gallium nitride. Gallium
