Abstract: Recent advances in photonic crystals have enabled high-efficiency thermophotovoltaic (TPV) energy conversion by allowing near-perfect spectral control. In this paper, photonic crystals ...

Elkhorn and staghorn corals used to carpet Florida’s reef system, rising like antlers from the seabed — but not anymore. These crucial coral species are now “functionally extinct” in the region after ...

Students often struggle with temperature conversions in science courses due to time constraints. A simplified approximation method offers a solution by using basic arithmetic: double Celsius and add ...

A pioneering approach has been developed to convert carbon dioxide (CO₂) into methane (CH₄)—the main component of natural gas—at room temperature. Traditionally, this process requires high ...

Researchers have developed an encapsulated cobalt-nickel alloy that significantly improves the efficiency and durability of high-temperature CO2 conversion, a promising technology for carbon recycling ...

We've all heard that carbon dioxide (CO 2) emissions need urgent solutions, but what if we could turn this greenhouse gas into useful chemicals or fuels? Electrochemical CO 2 conversion—the process of ...

Abstract: This brief proposes a low-power and energy-efficient CMOS temperature sensor circuit. It presents an integrated transducer and readout design with a novel 1-bit temperature-voltage (T-V) ...

Can we use the planetary environment of Mars to help power a future colony on the Red Planet? This is what a recent study published in Device hopes to address as a team of researchers investigated how ...

Brits are bracing for a snowy weekend as temperatures are expected to plunge below -10C. Weather maps indicate that snow clouds will sweep across the UK, with up to 80% of the country likely to see ...

The energy that supercharged Hurricane Milton into a Category 5 storm on Monday came from the waters of the Gulf of Mexico, which have been abnormally warm not just at the surface, but at depth, too.

Low-temperature on-demand conversion of ammonia to green hydrogen gas in the presence of Ru/CeO₂ catalyst and electric field Ammonia (NH₃) can be decomposed to produce hydrogen gas without releasing ...

If you were to compare Earth today with the planet 485 million years ago, when would it be warmer? A new research study charting temperatures over nearly half a million years reveals the surprising ...
