Light-activated, single-ion catalyst breaks down carbon dioxide

A team of scientists has discovered a single-site, visible-light-activated catalyst that converts carbon dioxide (CO2) into 'building block' molecules that could be used for creating useful chemicals. The discovery opens the possibility of using sunlight to turn a greenhouse gas into hydrocarbon fuels. from All Top News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2018/11/181126105519.htm

Making it crystal clear: Crystallinity reduces resistance in all-solid-state batteries

Scientists examined the mechanisms behind the resistance at the electrode-electrolyte interface of all-solid-state batteries. Their findings will aid in the development of much better Li-ion batteries with very fast charge/discharge rates. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2018/11/181126105526.htm

Advances in cellular microscopy: Transparent fruit flies

A new kind of microscope has been developed: it creates 2D light sheets, penetrating biological tissues and causing special molecules to fluoresce. For the microscope to work, the tissue has to be made transparent, so the researchers developed new chemical procedures to 'clear' them. With this technique, extremely detailed pictures of intricate features of the nervous system of fruit flies are now possible. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2018/11/181126105500.htm

New technology for the first experiment with the greatest source of x-rays in the world

The Flow Focusing technology (also known as GDVN, Gas Dynamic Virtual Nozzle), has been one of the key elements in the success of the first experiments carried out by the European XFEL project. It has been capable of generating jets of liquid of less than 2.5 microns in diameter with speeds that reach 100 metres per second. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2018/11/181126105458.htm

Virtual models provide real knowledge in the grass family

The complex flowers of the grass family have enormous economic importance, as their pollination leads to the production of grains such as rice, wheat, and corn. Grass species are notoriously difficult to study, however. Researchers present a cost-effective method using computer-assisted design (CAD) software to create high-quality, 3D digital representations of intricate plant structures that can advance understanding of pollination, with implications for both agriculture and weed control. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2018/11/181126093201.htm

Machine learning masters the fingerprint to fool biometric systems

Fingerprint authentication systems are a widely trusted, ubiquitous form of biometric authentication, deployed on billions of smartphones and other devices worldwide. Yet a new study reveals a surprising level of vulnerability in these systems. Using a neural network trained to synthesize human fingerprints, the research team evolved a fake fingerprint that could potentially fool a touch-based authentication system for up to one in five people. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2018/11/181120125832.htm
