Bioelectronics research and development of implants made of electrically conductive materials for disease treatment is advancing rapidly. However, bioelectronic treatment is not without complications. Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have taken another step forward by developing a refined method to create detailed and tissue-friendly bioelectronics. In a study published in Advanced Science

Synchrotron radiation researcher Ziyun Huang shows how to grow free-standing perovskite nanowires in a ligand-free way. The yield is dramatically improved using a controlled nitrogen flow, and in situ microscopy is used to visualize the growth dynamics.

A new study from Lund University in Sweden shows that plant-eating insects affect forest ecosystems considerably more than previously thought. Among other things, the insects are a factor in the leaching of nutrients from soil and increased emissions of carbon dioxide. The researchers also establish that the temperatu
