A wearable sensor can monitor levels of metabolites and nutrients in a person’s blood by analyzing their sweat

There are numerous things to dislike about going to the doctor: Paying a copay, sitting in the waiting room, out-of-date magazines, sick people coughing without covering their mouths. For many, though, the worst thing about a doctor’s visit is getting stuck with a needle. Blood tests are a tried-and-true way of evaluating what is going

Continuous-variable quantum key distribution over commercial fiber networks gets more real for metropolitan areas

Successful new field tests of a continuous-variable quantum key distribution (CV-QKD) system over commercial fiber networks could pave the way to its use in metropolitan areas. That is the key achievement from a joint team of Chinese scientists, published today in Quantum Science and Technology, which demonstrates CV-QKD transmission over commercial deployed fiber link with a distance of 50 kilometres.

Major challenge solved in the production of low-cost solar cells

Spray Coating Could Make Perovskite an Inexpensive Alternative to Silicon for Solar Panels An international team of university researchers today reports solving a major fabrication challenge for perovskite cells — the intriguing potential challengers to silicon-based solar cells. These crystalline structures show great promise because they can absorb almost all wavelengths of light. Perovskite solar

PowerPoint has a new job: Producing self-folding three-dimensional origami structures from photocurable liquid polymers

Researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology and Peking University have found a new use for the ubiquitous PowerPoint slide: The technique involves projecting a grayscale pattern of light and dark shapes onto a thin layer of liquid acrylate polymer placed in a plate or between two glass slides. A photoinitiator material mixed into the polymer

Promising new treatment for lupus on the horizon

A drug originally used to boost the immune system is showing promise as a potential new treatment for lupus, joint Monash University and Peking University research published today shows. Lupus is an autoimmune disease, where the immune system attacks the body’s own organs and tissues. An international team of scientists from Australia and China have,

New lithium-oxygen battery greatly improves energy efficiency, longevity

New chemistry could overcome key drawbacks of lithium-air batteries. Lithium-air batteries are considered highly promising technologies for electric cars and portable electronic devices because of their potential for delivering a high energy output in proportion to their weight. But such batteries have some pretty serious drawbacks: They waste much of the injected energy as heat

Robots could get ‘touchy’ with self-powered smart skin

Smart synthetic skins have the potential to allow robots to touch and sense what’s around them, but keeping them powered up and highly sensitive at low cost has been a challenge. Now scientists report in the journal ACS Nano a self-powered, transparent smart skin that is simpler and less costly than many other versions that

Penta-graphene, a new structural variant of carbon, discovered

“It will open up an entirely new branch of carbon science” The unique structure of the thin sheet of pure carbon was inspired by pentagonal tile pattern found in the streets of Cairo. Researchers at Virginia Commonwealth University and universities in China and Japan have discovered a new structural variant of carbon called “penta-graphene” –

Einstein’s scepticism about quantum mechanics may lead to ultra-secure internet

Einstein’s scepticism about quantum mechanics may lead to an ultra-secure internet suggests a new paper by researchers from Swinburne University of Technology and Peking University. Associate Professor Margaret Reid from Swinburne’s Centre for Quantum and Optical Science said Einstein’s reservations about quantum mechanics were highlighted in a phenomenon known as “‘spooky’ action at a distance.”

Knowing whether food has spoiled without even opening the container

A color-coded smart tag could tell consumers whether a carton of milk has turned sour or a can of green beans has spoiled without opening the containers, according to researchers. The tag, which would appear on the packaging, also could be used to determine if medications and other perishable products were still active or fresh,
