Using a combination of machine learning and powerful X-rays, Cornell researchers have solved a mystery behind the unusual behavior seen in a class of materials with potential for thermoelectric energy conversion and other applications.
A policy influencer, an entrepreneur, an academic and a journalist will offer their perspectives on how to make a difference in addressing climate change in the Cornell Climate Impact Speaker Series. The first installment is scheduled for Sept. 5.
Max Zhang, the Irving Porter Church Professor in Cornell Engineering’s Sibley School of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, has been appointed the provost’s fellow for public engagement.
Paths of the 3,574 students in the incoming class - including farmers, artists, inventors, entrepreneurs, athletes and altruists - all converge in Ithaca this week.
Hadas Kress-Gazit, the Geoffrey S.M. Hedrick Senior Endowed Professor in the Sibley School of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, has been named the next associate dean for diversity and academic affairs for Cornell Engineering.
A research team led by Cornell mapped atomic vibrations in diamond and linked them with the behavior of the quantum system embedded within, an advance that will make quantum sensors significantly more precise than today’s detection tools.
As the U.S. faces significant challenges in scaling up production of hydrogen in cost-effective and environmentally friendly ways, a new Cornell study outlines strategies to meet up to 75% of the nation’s future hydrogen demand by harnessing offshore wind energy.
A team led by Judy Cha collaborated with the late Lena Kourkoutis to use cryo-electron imaging to study how defects in the microstructure of the nanomaterial tantalum disulfide affects its properties.
