MATERIALS PARK, Ohio, June 7 (TNSjou) -- ASM International issued the following news:
A team of engineers at the University of Massachusetts Amherst has recently shown that nearly any material can be turned into a device that continuously harvests electricity from humidity in the air. The secret lies in being able to pepper the material with nanopores less than 100 nanometers in diameter.
"This is very exciting," says Xiaomeng Liu, a graduate student in elect . . .
