One of the most important frontiers in materials chemistry is the architectural control of synthetic materials on the nanometer-scale. Nanometer-scale architecture is primarily responsible for the ...

This paper discusses about a variety of functional blocks and design techniques that can be architected to create battery management systems. Moreover, careful consideration of battery requirements ...

One of the fundamental issues in the design of thermotropic and lyotropic LC monomers and polymer assemblies with additional functional properties is the compatibility of the functional element(s).

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Proteins, large organic compounds made of amino acids, provide many of the most basic units of function in living systems. They make up about half of the dry mass of animals and ...
