For the first time, light mimics a Nobel Prize quantum effect
Scientists have pulled off a feat long considered out of reach: getting light to mimic the famous quantum Hall effect. In their experiment, photons drift sideways in perfectly defined, quantized steps—just like electrons do in powerful magnetic fields. Because...
GIT Coatings launches graphene-enhanced coating for efficient maritime operations
GIT Coatings has announced the launch of XGIT-FORCE, a graphene-based hard foul-release coating designed to enhance marine vessel efficiency while supporting sustainable operations. The innovative solution is reportedly biocide-free, zero-leaching, and engineered...
Hollow graphene aerogel fibers mimicking polar bear fur enable improved thermal management and wearable electronics
Researchers from Lanzhou University, University of Science and Technology Beijing and the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) have developed a new class of hollow graphene aerogel fibers (GAFs) inspired by the ultra-efficient thermal insulation of polar bear hair. By...
2D Fab to work with the Norwegian Military Academy on graphene-enhanced concrete
2D Fab has announced a collaboration with Krigsskolen/FHS (the Norwegian Military Academy) on a project focused on enhancing the performance of existing ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) systems through advanced reinforcement technologies. Image credit: 2D...
Purafy and Electromaax announce strategic partnership
Purafy Clean Technologies, developer of graphene-based water filtration systems and Electromaax, a global innovator in energy-efficient marine and off-grid systems, have announced a strategic partnership to manufacture and distribute next-generation portable water...
Researchers unlock hidden dimensions inside a single photon
Researchers have discovered new ways to shape quantum light, creating high-dimensional states that can carry much more information per photon. Using advanced tools like on-chip photonics and ultrafast light structuring, they’re pushing quantum communication and...
Novel Joule heating process produces graphene from waste peanut shells
Researchers from Australia's University of New South Wales (UNSW), Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organization (ANSTO) and The Hong Kong Polytechnic University have developed a rapid, highly efficient process to synthesize graphene from discarded peanut...
A simple chemical tweak could supercharge quantum computers
Quantum computers need special materials called topological superconductors—but they’ve been notoriously difficult to create. Researchers have now shown they can trigger this exotic state by subtly adjusting the mix of tellurium and selenium in ultra-thin films....
HydroGraph is granted US EPA, UK REACH and EU REACH regulatory clearances for commercial scale graphene sales activities
HydroGraph Clean Power has announced that it received key regulatory clearances: a US EPA TSCA Section 5(e) Order (PMN P-24-0086/P-24-0087) plus confirmed UK REACH and EU REACH registrations (UK-01-8788107436-0-0006; 01-2120768618-38-0012). These approvals...
50 year quest ends with creation of silicon aromatic once thought impossible
After nearly 50 years of failed attempts and scientific speculation, chemists at Saarland University have achieved what many thought might be impossible: creating a long-sought silicon-based aromatic molecule. By replacing carbon atoms in a famously stable...
