By finding the atomic equivalent of a perfect handshake between two types of perovskite, researchers at Cornell have built solar cells that are not only high-performing, but exceptionally durable.
From a nanotech solution for removing toxic chemicals from water to a 3D-printing method for high-precision drug delivery, Cornell students put research innovations to the test in the first Technology Commercialization Innovation Competition.
The Cornell Engineering Office of Inclusive Excellence recognized outstanding undergraduate and graduate students, student organizations, faculty and staff at their Annual Awards Banquet on April 28.
Cornell researchers created a machine learning-based model that can forecast, with greater accuracy than current methods, the impact severe wildfire conditions will have on solar electricity generation.
Charles “Chuck” Benjamin Wharton, professor emeritus of electrical engineering and a distinguished expert in plasma physics, died April 12 in Ithaca, New York. He was 99.
A new study reveals that Italy’s Po River basin is likely to face intensifying drought conditions, with annual river discharge at the basin outlet projected to decrease substantially over the next 75 years.
Researchers identified a likely source of activity in a “zombie” volcano that appeared to be dormant for more than 250,000 years: molten rock releasing gas that pushes against the volcano’s upper crust.
Nine doctoral candidates were inducted into the Cornell Chapter of the Bouchet Graduate Honor Society, which recognizes scholarly achievement and promotes diversity in doctoral education.
