Many peptides and proteins have an innate ability to assemble into long, slender fibers called fibrils and other shapes. Now, researchers have found a way to harness this property to create tubular ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) For decades, researchers have sought to understand and harness the pyroelectric effect in biological materials. Pyroelectricity refers to the phenomenon where heating or cooling a ...

Energetic materials in the form of molecular crystals constructed by the C–N, N–N, and N–O bonds store chemical energy, while their strong electron–phonon coupling interactions promise high-energy ...

Manufactured by LASER COMPONENTS Detector Group, our pyroelectric detectors are the perfect solution for broadband IR detection. Materials exhibiting the pyroelectric effect convert IR radiation into ...
