Milling rice to separate the grain from the husks produces about 100 million tons of rice husk waste globally each year. Scientists searching for a scalable method to fabricate quantum dots have developed a way to recycle rice husks to create the first silicon quantum dot (QD) LED light.

Each year, about 100 million tons of rice husk waste is produced by milling rice to separate the grain from the husks. Researchers seeking a scalable method to fabricate quantum dots have created the first silicon quantum dot (QD) LED light by recycling rice husks.

Scientists at Hiroshima University in Japan have developed a way to recycle rice husks to create the first silicon quantum dot (SiQD) LED light.  

Researchers in Japan have developed a way to recycle waste rice husks to create the first silicon quantum dot (QD) LED light. The research team from the Natural Science Centre for Basic Research and Development at Hiroshima University transformed agricultural waste into state-of-the-art light-emitting diodes in a low-cost, environmentally friendly way.  The development was published […]

Samuel Mehr has long been interested in questions of what music is, how music works, and why music exists. To help find the answers, he’s created the Music Lab, an online, citizen-science project aimed at understanding not just how the human mind interprets music, but why music is a virtually ubiquitous feature of human societies.

Having a pan coronavirus, a pan coronavirus vaccine that can manage all coronaviruses, which there have been many, sars, mers. were not doing nearly enough to accelerate that. ive been talking to people involved in that race. there are so much more we can do to have an actual manhattan project there. in health care, and i think youll see a lot of this. and in particular something that ive not mentioned, you actually need a politics to support this. one of the problems right now, is basically all...

Than -- even before you want to get huge vaccination programs into play in a matter of weeks. right now, we are within a matter of years probably from having a pan coronavirus, a pan coronavirus vaccine that can manage all coronaviruses, which there have been many, sars, mers. were not doing nearly enough to accelerate that. -- there are so much more we can do to have an actual manhattan project there. in health care, and i think youll see a lot of this. and in particular something that ive not ...

Major publishers with a monopoly on scientific papers have suspended sales in Russia. As things stand, Sci-Hub is the only beacon of hope.

A new sorbent with special abilities to remove heavy metals, like copper and zinc from water solutions has been synthesized by a global research team headed by scientists at Ural Federal University.
