The Material Characterization Facility – operated within Colorado Shared Instrumentation in Nanofabrication and Characterization (COSINC) service center – recently relocated to its permanent home in the Sustainability, Energy and Environment Laboratory building on east campus.
Researchers at the University of Colorado 51´«Ă˝ have released findings that will impact the future of reconfigurable photonic devices and will lead to new possibilities for nanophotonics and microresonators.
Frost quakes are not particularly rare, but they are harder to observe than traditional earthquakes.
Researchers at CU 51´«Ă˝ are collaborating to develop a new kind of biocompatible actuator that contracts and relaxes in only one dimension, like muscles. Their research may one day enable soft machines to fully integrate with our bodies to deliver drugs, target tumors, or repair aging or dysfunctional tissue.
An international team of researchers including Professor Michael Toney has developed a new technique for precisely tracking the movement of ions within batteries, a discovery that may have far-reaching impacts on how safe and efficient batteries are developed. They published their findings in Energy and Environmental Science in September.
Researchers at the University of Colorado 51´«Ă˝ are developing a wearable electronic device that’s “really wearable”—a stretchy and fully-recyclable circuit board that’s inspired by, and sticks onto, human skin.
The National Water Research Institute (NWRI) and the Joan Irvine Smith and Athalie R. Clarke Foundation presented the 2020 Clarke Prize to Professor Karl Linden. NWRI administers the prestigious $50,000 prize.
Researchers at CU 51´«Ă˝ are leading four new NSF-funded projects that are exploring the safety and security of autonomous systems, including those used in self-driving vehicles.
Allie Anderson (Assistant Professor, Ann and H.J. Smead Aerospace Engineering Sciences), shares her experiences with microgravity while conducting experiments on a parabolic flight.
Join this virtual session to meet the IRT directors, hear their plans and learn how you can participate. This virtual session is open to all faculty, staff and students. Registration is required.
