Carbon nanotubes are moving from lab curiosities to workhorse components in quantum hardware, and one of the most striking examples is their use as single-photon light sources. By exploiting their ...

Blue light has acquired a dubious reputation in recent years, frequently blamed for everything from disrupted sleep patterns to digital eye strain. This high-energy light, emitted abundantly by our ...

Researchers are reporting progress on the road to more efficient utilization of solar energy: They have developed an innovative light-harvesting system. In order to convert sunlight into electricity ...

Imagine a source of energy that produces no carbon emissions, lies beneath our feet, and could power human civilization for millennia. A growing body of research now suggests that such a resource ...

“This system demonstrates remarkable efficiency in storing solar energy as electrons,” the study authors said. This work shows that solar energy can be captured, stored, transported as a liquid, and ...

The increasing adoption of renewable energy mandates by countries around the world has led to massive investment in the green energy sector, although for now, energy generation in the U.S. is still ...

A natural gas could be a key component of climate mitigation, scientists say. A hidden source of clean energy could power the planet for more than a hundred thousand years if tapped into, according to ...
