Cornell researchers have developed a two-phase liquid crystal system that can rapidly change – and hold – its shape, transforming from a transparent thin liquid film to an opaque emulsion, and then back again, all with a brief jolt of a high-frequency electric field.
Cornell researchers have uncovered a microscopic layer of carbon contamination, often left behind by air exposure and fabrication techniques, that impairs electrical flow in devices made with gallium oxide. They also found a solution.
The Cornell NanoScale Science and Technology Facility has launched a free VR youth outreach module, designed to prepare the next generation of students in cutting-edge microchip fabrication.
Researchers developed machine-learning models that can sift through cell-free RNA and identify key biomarkers for chronic fatigue syndrome, a debilitating disease that is difficult to confirm in patients because its symptoms can be easily confused with those of other illnesses.
Cornell researchers have developed an implant system that can treat Type 1 diabetes by supplying extra oxygen to densely packed insulin-secreting cells, without the need for immunosuppression.
Cornell researchers have found that peaceful microbes are more likely to thrive, and their more aggressive peers perish, if their environment is harsh or experiences violent disruptions.
With support from Cornell’s research and testing facilities, deep-tech company AVS US – with facilities just outside Ithaca – successfully launched two spacecraft aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket on June 23
