=In the News:= A new experimental method for studying defects in crystal lattices Researchers of the Aalto University have developed a new experimental technique that can be used for studying opto-electronically active materials. Light emitting diodes can be made more efficient by reducing lattice defects in the starting materials. In collaboration with the DTC Research Centre (UK), the method was used to solve the mystery of the brown colour in natural diamond. [] Psychology Experiments and Research Methods Nearly every introductory psychology class starts off with a brief introduction to research and experimental methods. If you're a psychology major, you will probably need to design, analyze or conduct a research project or experiment at some point in your academic career. Learn more about psychology research methods, explore some of the most famous psychology experiments and discover ideas for your own research projects. []
