Despite significant advances in science and technology, we are still unable to fully overcome […]
Willem L. Vos University of Twente The study of the propagation of light through complex composite materials – e.g., paint, foam, bio-logical tissue - is a topic that has become a field of its own . This may seem surprising: if a material is so opaque that it scrambles images, how can one see through? […]
Begüm Yarar Kaplan Sabancı University Nanotechnology Research and Application Center (SUNUM), Turkey Padova University, Italy Electrospinning is a highly versatile and powerful technique for producing nanostructured materials, particularly suited to energy storage and conversion applications . It enables the fabrication of nanofibrous electrodes and membranes with exceptionally high surface area, uniformly distributed ionically conductive phases, […]
Dear Members of the Bilkent Community, Bilkent University National Nanotechnology Research Center (UNAM) embraces scientific excellence alongside the principles of equality, inclusivity, and a safe academic environment, and considers gender equality an integral part of its institutional culture. UNAM actively supports initiatives that promote gender equality and contribute to the fight against violence against women. […]
Myung-Han Yoon Gwangju Institute of Science and Technology In this research, we report highly crystalline organic mixed ionic-electronic conductors (OMIECs) designed to overcome the inherent trade-off between electrical/electrochemical performance and long-term aqueous stability. First, by introducing a sulfuric acid treatment, we successfully crystallized poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):polystyrene sulfonate (PEDOT:PSS) films. These films exhibit excellent electrical, electrochemical, and optical […]
