When it comes to designing extremely water-repellent surfaces, shape and size matter. That's the finding of a group of scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy's Brookhaven National Laboratory, who investigated the effects of differently shaped, nanoscale textures on a material's ability to force water droplets to roll off without wetting its surface.
Ultra water-repellent material developed at Brookhaven Lab may lead to many warming applications.
The Large Area Picosecond Photodetector (LAPPD) collaboration has developed cheaper, larger, more robust microchannel plates, seen here at the test facility at Argonne.
Cross-disciplinary collaboration including scientists from Argonne and Fermi national laboratories develops larger, more precise photodetectors for the market.
