Researchers at Tel Aviv University have developed a groundbreaking method to transform graphite into materials with ...

Can copper be turned into gold? For centuries, alchemists pursued this dream, unaware that such a transformation requires a ...

However, a more viable transformation, according to Prof. Moshe Ben Shalom, head of the Quantum Layered Matter Group at Tel Aviv University, involves reconfiguring graphite’s atomic layers by subtly ...

Essentially, the tufts of tiny hairs on gecko feet get so close to the contours in walls and ceilings that electrons from the ...

held together by weak van der Waals forces. These materials have been the focus of numerous studies, as their unique properties make them ideal for studying various exotic and rare physical phenomena.

Like graphite, nature produces many other materials with weakly bonded layers," Stern explains. "Each layer behaves like a ...

Looming largest is the implied threat to Agoa. While not explicitly revoked in the executive order, Agoa’s future has been cast into serious doubt, with $4bn in preferential exports and a total of ...

The symmetron model is one of the most compelling theories of dark energy and it has been tested in a laboratory experiment based on a magnetically levitated force ... in van der Waals materials.

About 128 force curves were collected from two distinct spots on ... Lowering the temperature induces van der Waals (vdW) interactions and adhesion upon particle-particle contact, leading to particle ...
