Shape is one of the most important determinants of the properties of microstructures. Despite of a recent progress on microfabrication techniques, production of three-dimensional micro-objects are yet ...

During embryo development, patterns of protein concentration appear in response to morphogen gradients. These patterns provide spatial and chemical information that directs the fate of the underlying ...

A research team has developed a new cathode material that significantly improves the environmental stability and cycling performance of sodium-ion batteries. By designing a radial gradient ...

Biophysicists at Ludwig-Maximilians-Universitaet (LMU) in Munch have developed a new theory, which accounts for the observation that cells can perceive their own shapes, and use this information to ...

If a crystal of a coloured soluble chemical, eg potassium manganate(VII), is placed in water, the particles spread out and mix with the water particles. As well as diffusion occurring between ...
