A cartoon of robot-enabled inorganic materials synthesis. The robot selects powder precursors based on new criteria, mixes them by ball milling, moves them to an oven, and measures the results with ...

Researchers have engineered groups of robots that behave as smart materials with tunable shape and strength, mimicking living ...

Researchers have developed a digital laboratory (dLab) system that fully automates the material synthesis and structural, physical property evaluation of thin-film samples. With dLab, the team can ...

New chemistries for batteries, semiconductors and more could be easier to manufacture, thanks to a new approach to making chemically complex materials that researchers at the University of Michigan ...

NC: I see myself as a proponent of computation in the field of smart materials. But the word ‘smart’ is overloaded; there is also a lot of discussion about active materials. I created the term ...

A South Korean industry-academia research team has successfully developed an automated experimental system, composed of artificial intelligence (AI) and robotic arms, to discover secondary battery ...
