Researchers have engineered a new type of molecular probe that can measure and count RNA in cells and tissue without organic dyes. The probe relies on compact quantum dots to illuminate molecules and diseased cells rather than fluorescent dyes.

Researchers have made tellurium, a rare metal, into a film less than a nanometer thick. The resulting material, tellurene, shows promise for next-generation, near-infrared solar cells, and other optoelectronic applications that rely on the manipulation of light.

Crude oil often clogs filters membranes used in the oil and gas industry. To address this problem, scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Argonne National Laboratory have developed a novel approach, which will prolong the lifetime of key industrial equipment. Much of the work was performed at the Center for Nanoscale Materials, which is funded by the U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Science.
