Engineers from University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign studied how water interacting inside these crystal pores affect its catalytic stability and now are able to confidently “engineer better synthetic zeolites and tune them to influence reactions of many types”. This could influence how other materials are designed and synthesized by others for similar uses.

In the quantum sense, these vibrations are known as Phonons. Electrons in most metals travel in a particle-like manner due to scattering by electron-phonon interaction. However, a research team from Boston College has found a new kind of metal where electrons flow like a fluid. This topic of research is new and interesting in what it could mean for the electronic gadgets and communications industry.

Summary: Once again, nanomaterials have proven their superiority as researchers from University of Houston have developed an electrochemical actuator which could be used in biomedical and bioelectronic science. The actuator made from Organic Semiconductor NanoTubes (OSNT) has overcome a major problem with electrochemical actuators while also being able to work well with less power.
