Microwaves turn waste PET into components of batteries in 2 minutes
New battery technology involving microwaves may provide an avenue for renewable energy conversion and storage.Purdue University researchers created a technique to turn waste polyethylene terephthalate, one of the most recyclable polymers, into…
New discovery helps close the gap towards optically-controlled quantum computation
Scientists have discovered a light-induced switching mechanism in a Dirac semimetal. The mechanism establishes a new way to control the topological material, driven by back-and-forth motion of atoms and electrons, which will…
