In 2021, lanthanide-doped nanoparticles made waves or rather, an avalanche when Changwan Lee, then a PhD student in Jim Schuck’s lab at Columbia Engineering, set off an extreme light-producing chain reaction from ultrasmall crystals developed at the Molecular Foundry at Berkeley Lab.
A research team, affiliated with South Korea's Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology (UNIST) has made a significant breakthrough in uncovering the potential of ultra-photostable avalanching nanoparticles (ANP).
Lawrence Berkeley National Lab scientists have measured the highest toughness ever recorded of any material. The discovery came while investigating a metallic alloy made of chromium, cobalt, and nickel
Scientists have measured the highest toughness ever recorded, of any material, while investigating a metallic alloy made of chromium, cobalt, and nickel (CrCoNi). Not only is the metal extremely ductile which, in materials science, means highly malleable and impressively strong, its strength and ductility improve as it gets colder. This runs counter to most other materials in existence.
