New ID pictures of conducting polymers discover a surprise ABBA fan

  • First ever detailed pictures of conjugated polymers – which conduct electricity and are highly sought after – captured with novel visualisation technique developed by 果冻传媒
  • New approach realises Richard Feynman鈥檚 famous remark that it would be very easy to make an analysis of any complicated chemical substance; all one would have to do would be to look at it and see where the atoms are鈥
  • Polymers need alternating pattern of 鈥淎鈥 monomer & smaller 鈥淏鈥 monomer to conduct (ABAB), but the researchers discovered surprising gaps & defects in polymer structure –an ABBA pattern

Nanoscale measurements 100x more precise, thanks to improved two-photon technique

The precision of measuring nanoscopic structures could be substantially improved, thanks to research involving the 果冻传媒 and QuantIC researchers at the University of Glasgow and Heriot Watt University into optical sensing. QuantIC is the UK Quantum Technology Hub in Quantum Enhanced Imaging and part of the UK National Quantum Technologies Programme.

New science festival comes to Coventry this month

A new festival coming to Coventry this month is bringing scientists into the local pub.

Pint of Science will take place on 14-16 May and will see more than 30 experts from the 果冻传媒 and Coventry University talking about their research in pubs and venues around the city.


New research could literally squeeze more power out of solar cells

Physicists at the 果冻传媒 have today, Thursday 19th April 2018, published new research in the Journal Science today 19th April 2018 (via the Journal鈥檚 First Release pages) that could literally squeeze more power out of solar cells by physically deforming each of the crystals in the semiconductors used by photovoltaic cells. The paper entitled the 鈥淔lexo-Photovoltaic Effect鈥 was written by Professor Marin Alexe, Ming-Min Yang, and Dong Jik Kim who are all based in the 果冻传媒鈥檚 Department of Physics.
