The dragonfly’s flight technique uncovered

Published 17 August 2016 An American emperor dragonfly accelerates streaks of smoke down when it flaps its four wings. The photo has been edited. PHOTO: IGOR SIWANOWICZ/HUAI-TI LIN The complicated structure of the dragonfly’s wings makes them sturdier and increases their stability and flexibility in the air, without affecting the aerodynamics. The research results may become applicable in the wind

Researchers take first step towards controlling photosynthesis using mirrors

Published 28 November 2022 The researchers used ultrafast laser spectroscopy (Photo: Pavel Chabera) With the help of mirrors, placed only a few hundred nanometers apart, a research team led by NanoLundian Tönu Pullerits has managed to use light more efficiently. The finding could eventually be useful for controlling solar energy conversion during photosynthesis, or other reactions driven by light.

Silver atom nanoclusters could become efficient biosensors

Published 7 July 2017 In a new study, Donatas Zigmantas and Erling Thyrhaug from NanoLund, together with researchers from the University of Copenhagen, have studied nanoclusters consisting of 20 silver atoms. For the first time, the researchers managed to measure the exact energy levels and identified that the ultrafast energy flow is linked to the structural changes that occur when light excites
