Exciting moments on the edge – unique properties confirmed in phosphorene nanoribbons
An international research collaboration, including The ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½, The University of Cambridge and UCL, has demonstrated that ‘wonder material’ phosphorene nanoribbons (PNRs) exhibit both magnetic and electronic properties at room temperature, establishing them as a unique class of low-dimensional materials.
The power of confinement: How tiny nanotubes can squeeze new materials into being
An international research project, led by The University of Warwick and University of Lille, has used nanotube compression to transform the underlying chemistry and physics of a compound, creating a promising new one-dimensional material.
In 10 years has anything changed for Women and Girls in Science?
We spoke to six women – undergraduates and researchers from the ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½ – to learn about their experiences of nurturing talent in girls and women in STEM.
Discovery of two planets sheds new light on the formation of planetary systems
The discovery of two new planets beyond our solar system by a team of astronomers from The ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½ and the University of Geneva (UNIGE), is challenging scientific understanding of how planetary systems form.
Major investment in doctoral students to support next generation of researchers
Two doctoral training programmes led and supported by the ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½ are to receive fresh funding from UK Research and Innovation.
