Black Swan Graphene updates on customer trials
Black Swan Graphene has reported performance results from production-scale trials conducted by one of its partners, a global masterbatch manufacturer, including testing at end-customer facilities. For one marquee consumer-products program, Black Swan was advised...
Light-powered chip makes AI 100 times more efficient
Artificial intelligence is consuming enormous amounts of energy, but researchers at the University of Florida have built a chip that could change everything by using light instead of electricity for a core AI function. By etching microscopic lenses directly onto...
Graphene oxide-based nanocomposite tackles antibiotic pollution in wastewater
Researchers from National Taiwan University recently investigated the use of graphene oxide (GO) within a multifunctional nanocomposite for removing veterinary antibiotics - including sulfamethoxazole, oxytetracycline, and enrofloxacin - from livestock wastewater....
First Graphene and Hazer Group enter MOU to advance high-value graphite applications
First Graphene and Hazer Group have signed a nonbinding Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) under which they will collaborate to identify and assess applications where graphite produced via the proprietary Hazer® Process may offer technical and/or commercial...
Scientists just made the first time crystal you can see
Physicists at the University of Colorado Boulder have created the first time crystal that humans can actually see, using liquid crystals that swirl into never-ending patterns when illuminated by light. This breakthrough builds on Nobel laureate Frank Wilczek’s 2012...
Midea unveils multi-functional oven featuring graphene teating tech
Midea, a global producer of smart home and lifestyle solutions, has unveiled the Midea Wave Range - a multi-functional free-standing oven that integrates microwave and graphene heating technologies, with emphasis on its applicability for compact European kitchens...
Nanoporous graphene networks could transform electronics and spintronics
A recent review by researchers at the Catalan Institute of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology (ICN2) and the Universitu of Barcelona provides an overview of an emerging class of carbon nanomaterials: nanoporous graphenes (NPGs). The work highlights how these...
These clear windows can secretly produce solar power
Scientists have created a transparent solar coating that turns ordinary windows into clean energy generators without affecting clarity. Using cholesteric liquid crystal layers, the coating redirects polarized sunlight to the window edges where solar cells collect...
Scientists just found a hidden quantum geometry that warps electrons
A hidden quantum geometry that distorts electron paths has finally been observed in real materials. This “quantum metric,” once thought purely theoretical, may revolutionize electronics, superconductivity, and ultrafast devices.
Scientists watch an atomic nucleus flip in real time
Scientists at Delft University of Technology have managed to watch a single atomic nucleus flip its magnetic state in real time. Using a scanning tunneling microscope, they indirectly read the nucleus through its electrons, finding the nuclear spin surprisingly...
