Cobalt/graphene carbon beads clear antibiotic pollutant from water without metal leaching
Researchers at Hebei University of Technology, Nankai University, and the Oil & Gas Technology Research Institute of Huabei Oilfield Company have developed a millimeter-scale, magnetically recoverable carbon bead catalyst that achieves complete removal of the...
Scientists are building a microscope powered by a quantum computer
Scientists are combining an electron microscope with a quantum computer to squeeze far more information from each electron. The approach could reveal faint details with fewer electrons, helping protect fragile samples that conventional microscopy can damage.
Physicists discover a hidden “curveball” in quantum light
Researchers have experimentally demonstrated the optical Magnus effect for the first time, revealing that a tightly focused laser interacts most strongly with an atom slightly away from the beam’s center. The unexpected shift is similar to the physics that makes a...
Stony Brook University patents graphene oxide sensor for measuring dew point
Researchers at Stony Brook University, part of the State University of New York (SUNY) system, have patented a new method for measuring dew point and detecting icing conditions using a graphene oxide film, offering a potentially far cheaper alternative to the...
Tiny sound waves could help solve a major quantum computing problem
Researchers at Harvard have demonstrated a way to protect quantum information using microscopic sound waves. By continuously surrounding a diamond-based qubit with mechanical vibrations, they extended its coherence time by roughly threefold. The same phonons could...
Graphene nanowall nanomesh boosts wearable gas sensor sensitivity sixfold
Researchers at the Daegu Gyeongbuk Institute of Science and Technology (DGIST), Hanbat National University, Chungnam National University, the Korea Institute of Industrial Technology, Kyungpook National University, and the Gumi Electronics and Information Technology...
Physicists just found a tiny glitch in time itself
Unconventional quantum theories may imply that time itself has a tiny fundamental uncertainty, placing an ultimate limit on how precisely any clock could measure it. The effect is far beyond current detection, but it could reveal a hidden connection between quantum...
Researchers synthesize curved, defect-rich nanographene in two steps
Researchers at Nagoya University and RIKEN have developed a new two-step annulative π-extension (APEX) method that grants access to a far broader range of structurally diverse nanographenes than previous approaches allow - including a rare, non-planar structure built...
GMG announces battery milestone amid Asia Pacific expansion push
Graphene Manufacturing Group (GMG) has released new third-party cycling data on its fast-charging G®CELLS graphene battery technology, developed under GMG's Joint Development Agreement with mining giant Rio Tinto and with support from the Battery Innovation Center of...
