Scientists at the National University of Singapore (NUS) have demonstrated a perovskite–organic tandem solar cell with a certified world-record power conversion efficiency of 26.4% over a 1 cm2 active area—making it the highest-performing device of […]
As wildfires increasingly threaten lives, landscapes, and air quality across the U.S., a Stanford-led study published in AGU Advances finds that prescribed burns can help reduce risks.This post was originally published on this site.
A new study challenges the idea that climate change is behind the erratic wintertime behavior of the polar jet stream, the massive current of Arctic air that regulates weather for much of the Northern Hemisphere.This […]
Researchers at NYU Tandon School of Engineering have created VeriGen, the first specialized artificial intelligence model successfully trained to generate Verilog code, the programming language that describes how a chip’s circuitry functions.This post was originally […]
In recent years, energy engineers have been working on a wide range of technologies that could help to generate and store electrical power more sustainably. These include electrolyzers, devices that could use electricity sourced via […]
Every summer, typhoons threatening the Korean Peninsula draw their energy from the warm waters of the Northwest Pacific Ocean. In recent years, the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events—such as heat waves, droughts, and […]
Artificial intelligence is considered to be computationally and energy-intensive—a challenge for the Internet of Things (IoT), where small, embedded sensors have to make do with limited computing power, little memory and small batteries.This post was […]
Solar cells, devices that can convert sunlight into electrical energy, are becoming increasingly widespread, with many households and industries worldwide now relying on them as a source of electricity. While crystalline silicon-based photovoltaics and other […]
Microsoft employees aren’t getting much time to take a breath between layoff rounds as thousands could be let go in early July, according to news reports.This post was originally published on this site.
In a remarkable advancement for soil science, researchers from Japan have developed a novel method for estimating microbial biomass using water-extractable organic matter (WEOM) from air-dried soils.This post was originally published on this site.
