Advancements in bismuth sulfide gas sensors highlight their potential for detecting hazardous gases, crucial for safety in ...

Researchers have uncovered a surprising phenomenon in the material BiNiO3: when subjected to high pressure at low temperatures, its well-arranged electrical charges are disrupted, leading to a ...

One hypothesis is that the atomic structure of bismuth constrains electron movement in a way that mimics the behavior of topological materials, recently discovered exotic substances whose surfaces ...

Admittedly, we have a pretty low bar for that kind of stuff, but eye candy aside, [Robin Debreuil]’s quick outline of his technique for desoldering with the help of bismuth is worth watching.

Ram Mohan looks at how bismuth — a remarkably harmless element among the toxic heavy metals in the periodic table — has sparked interest in areas varying from medicinal to industrial chemistry.

Implemented powerful solar cells without lead and cadmium! Improved power conversion efficiency by 8.26%. - Increased solar cell efficiency by greatly increasing charge carrier diffusion length! Birth ...

The method can be applied to any metal with a low melting point, and the team has used it to make 2D sheets of bismuth, gallium, indium, lead and tin. The feat was reported today in Nature 1.
