Concurrent computing is a form of computing in which several computations are executing during overlapping time periods – concurrently – instead of sequentially (one completing before the next star...
Low surface-energy surfaces
In polymer chemistry, ring-opening polymerization (ROP) is a form of chain-growth polymerization, in which the terminal end of a polymer chain acts as a reactive center where further cyclic monomer...
A heat pump is a device that provides heat energy from a source of heat or "heat sink" to a destination. Heat pumps are designed to move thermal energy opposite to the direction of spontaneous heat...
The lead–acid battery was invented in 1859 by French physicist Gaston Planté and is the oldest type of rechargeable battery. Despite having a very low energy-to-weight ratio and a low energy-to-vol...
Microspheres are small spherical particles, with diameters in the micrometer range (typically 1 μm to 1000 μm (1 mm)). Microspheres are sometimes referred to as microparticles. Microspheres can ...
The memory cell is the fundamental building block of computer memory. The memory cell is an electronic circuit that stores one bit of binary information and it must be set to store a logic 1 (high ...

Cleaving DNA
A quantum well laser is a laser diode in which the active region of the device is so narrow that quantum confinement occurs. Laser diodes are formed in compound semiconductor materials that (quite ...
Olefin metathesis is an organic reaction that entails the redistribution of fragments of alkenes (olefins) by the scission and regeneration of carbon-carbon double bonds.[1] Catalysts for this reac...
Subtilisin is a non-specific protease (a protein-digesting enzyme) initially obtained from Bacillus subtilis.[2][3][4][5][6][7] Subtilisins belong to subtilases, a group of serine proteases that...
A fiber-reinforced composite (FRC) is a composite building material that consists of three components: (i) the fibers as the discontinuous or dispersed phase, (ii) the matrix as the continuous phas...
Gene synthesis
Cloudwater collector
Optical or photonic computing uses photons produced by lasers or diodes for computation. For decades, photons have promised to allow a higher bandwidth than the electrons used in conventional compu...
Oligonucleotide synthesis is the chemical synthesis of relatively short fragments of nucleic acids with defined chemical structure (sequence). The technique is extremely useful in current laborator...
