Asst Prof Tan Swee Ching and his team of researchers from the Dept of Materials Science and Engineering at NUS Faculty of Engineering have invented a novel way to lower the humidity in a room without using energy. They developed a hydrogel which, when combined with some chemicals and a thin carbon mesh, can absorb […]
Dean of NUS Engineering, Professor Aaron Thean, explains that two-dimensional (2D) materials like tungsten selenide may be used for cutting-edge transistors and resistive memories, and proposes the possibility to realise new ‘one-transistor one-resistor’ memories in this publication in Nature Communications.
