Scientists at TU Delft have designed a nanostring resonator that, when driven at its lowest vibration frequency, quietly funnels energy through a chain of higher modes all the way up to the fifth, ...

New research from the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory, in collaboration with The Ohio State University and Amphenol Corporation, challenges conventional understanding about ...

Scientists have discovered that electrons in solar materials can be launched across molecules almost as fast as nature allows, driven by tiny atomic vibrations.

They show considerable potential in many applications, including vibration insulation, wave-guiding, noise control, and energy harvesting technologies. While the foundation of metamaterials research ...

Restoring natural vocal cord vibrations may reduce aggressive cancer activity, offering new clues about how laryngeal cancer develops.

It’s well understood that spiders have poor eyesight and thus sense the vibrations in their webs whenever prey (like a fly) gets caught; the web serves as an extension of their sensory system. But ...

Good vibrations: tracking the motion of atoms in iron selenide Two important breakthroughs in the understanding of iron-selenide superconductors have been made by two independent research groups. One ...
