Researchers directly image how oxide coatings suppress electric fields in working graphene devices
Researchers at Sweden's Uppsala University, working with beamline scientists at Synchrotron SOLEIL in France, have directly visualized how ultrathin metal-oxide layers reshape the electric field inside operating graphene devices, a capability previously accessible...
This tiny gold crystal could bring quantum technology out of the deep freeze
Scientists have created the first quantum material that can sort and transport different quantum states of light at room temperature, potentially removing the need for bulky, ultra-cold refrigeration systems. Built from a gold film carved with hundreds of...
Sunlight creates quantum entanglement once thought to require lasers
Scientists have generated quantum entanglement directly from sunlight, potentially offering a lower-energy alternative to the lasers normally used in quantum technology. Their outdoor experiment produced entangled photons with about 94% similarity to an ideal...
Researchers use graphene encapsulation to grow air-stable 2D superconductors for quantum circuits
MIT researchers, together with collaborators from Harvard University, Rice University, Yale University, MIT Lincoln Laboratory and Pohang University in South Korea, have developed a technique that uses graphene to grow air-stable, wafer-scale monolayer...
UCLA scientists discover how to guide heat like light at room temperature
Scientists have demonstrated that heat can move through a crystal in focused, wave-like rays at room temperature instead of spreading randomly. The breakthrough could make it possible to route heat around sensitive parts of next-generation chips and quantum...
Premier Graphene’s HGI Industrial Technologies forms ballistic protection joint venture with Nova Graphene
Premier Graphene, a US-based advanced materials company focused on graphene production and formulation, has announced that its affiliate HGI Industrial Technologies has formed a joint venture with Canada's Nova Graphene to develop and commercialize graphene-enabled...
Researchers develop graphene oxide membrane for faster, lower-energy isopropanol purification
An international team led by researchers at KU Leuven, with contributing authors from the University of Bath, Nanjing University, Huazhong University of Science and Technology and Monash University, has developed a graphene oxide membrane that speeds up the removal...
Adisyn confirms graphene deposition across a full 200mm wafer, ~300x its previous coupon-scale result
Adisyn has independently confirmed it can deposit graphene across a full 200mm industrial wafer at low temperature, below 300°C - a scale-up from the 1cm by 1cm coupon the company had previously demonstrated.The deposition was tested at 12 sampling locations across...
Graphene oxide-bridged carbon fiber skeleton delivers 41-fold thermal conductivity boost for electronics cooling
Researchers from the Institute of Metal Research (Chinese Academy of Sciences), the University of Science and Technology of China, and Xi'an Rare Metal Materials Institute Co., Ltd. have developed a new thermal interface material (TIM) that combines high thermal...
Scientists twist crystal layers and reshape matter from within
Researchers have found a way to build much larger “twisted” oxide materials while precisely controlling how their atomic layers line up. Because these materials can be made over large areas and transferred onto different surfaces, the technique could help turn...
