The science of the energy transition: Macro-energy systems

What types of electricity storage could have the biggest impact globally for a low-carbon energy future? Can humanity simultaneously de-carbonize energy and extend heat, lighting and transportation to more than a billion people now living with without modern energy services? These are the types of big-picture questions that are being answered by the research that

Solving real problems on current quantum computing hardware

Argonne combines quantum and classical approaches to overcome limitations in current quantum computing hardware In recent years, quantum devices have become available that enable researchers — for the first time — to use real quantum hardware to begin to solve scientific problems. However, in the near term, the number and quality of qubits (the basic

Researchers have reversed in an animal model the deadliest effects of chronic kidney disease

By loading a chelation drug into a nano-sized homing device, researchers at Clemson University have reversed in an animal model the deadliest effects of chronic kidney disease, which kills more people in the United States each year than breast or prostate cancer. When kidneys stop working properly, calcium builds up in artery tissue, leading to

Breakthrough in self-healing materials

The cost of making plastics, paints, coatings for cell phone screens and other materials that heal themselves like skin could be dramatically reduced thanks to a breakthrough that a Clemson University team detailed in the latest edition of the journal Science. Marek Urban and his team wrote about how they were able to give self-healing qualities

New approach to develop treatments for the sleeping sickness

Sixty million people in sub-Saharan Africa live at risk of African sleeping sickness, a disease caused by parasites transmitted through the tsetse fly. In the late stage of the disease, when the parasite crosses the blood-brain barrier, the results are oftentimes fatal. BYU chemistry professor Ken Christensen, students and collaborators at Clemson University have developed

Can triboelectricity wirelessly power the world?

Researchers from Clemson’s Nanomaterials Institute (CNI) are one step closer to wirelessly powering the world using triboelectricity, a green energy source. In March 2017, a group of physicists at CNI invented the ultra-simple triboelectric nanogenerator or U-TENG, a small device made of plastic and tape that generates electricity from motion and vibrations. When the two materials are brought together

Smart material can sense damage, similar to how nerves tell the body it has been injured

Helicopters, tanks and other vehicles could someday be made of “smart material” that senses damage, similar to how nerves tell the body it has been injured, with the help of new research based at Clemson University and funded by the U.S. Army Research Laboratory. The idea is that magnetically sensitive material would be embedded within

Hybrid material presents potential for 4-D-printed adaptive devices

Combining photo-responsive fibers with thermo-responsive gels, researchers at the University of Pittsburgh’s Swanson School of Engineering and Clemson University have modeled a new hybrid material that could reconfigure itself multiple times into different shapes when exposed to light and heat, allowing for the creation of devices that not only adapt to their environment, but also

Researchers create bubble-filled glass, a medical breakthrough

Researchers from Clemson University created “bubbled-filled gas” which produces images clearer than any available commercially manufactured optical fibres for all-encompassing medical dealings. This discovery may show the way to endoscopes taking much clearer images to easily determine colon cancer, digestive problems, ulcers and other serious medical issues. The landmark accomplishment earned a place on “Physics

Clemson technological breakthrough may lead to self-healing devices

If you cut yourself shaving, it’s no big problem because you know it will heal. But what if you scratch the screen on your cell phone, or scrape your car up against something and put a long scratch on the fender? In the future, that may be no problem either, once the technological breakthroughs made

Cheaper silicon means cheaper solar cells

A new method of producing solar cells could reduce the amount of silicon per unit area by 90 per cent compared to the current standard. With the high prices of pure silicon, this will help cut the cost of solar power. “We’re using less expensive raw materials, and smaller amounts of them, we have fewer
