Dana Gas and Levidian have started graphene production in Sharjah, after commissioning the first LOOP 20 unit at the Sharjah Graphene Park. The unit is reportedly running at full capacity, with an annual output above one ton. The start comes months after the two...

Nearly a century after physicist Hans Bethe predicted them, scientists have created and directly observed unusual quantum states known as “Bethe strings” in an ultracold gas. By cooling cesium atoms to near absolute zero and trapping them in thousands of tiny...

Graphene Manufacturing Group (GMG) has reported new cycling data for its fast-charging graphene aluminium-ion cells, which it is developing with Rio Tinto under a joint development agreement. The 1.5 Ah cells were built and tested by the Battery Innovation Center of...

Researchers at the University of Manchester, the Institute of Microelectronics of Barcelona (IMB-CNM, CSIC), the Catalan Institute of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology (ICN2) and Multi Channel Systems (Germany) have used graphene micro-transistor arrays to map how brain...

The European MINIGRAPH project, funded by the European Innovation Council and coordinated by ICN2, has wrapped up with results on graphene neural probes and a robotic way to implant them. The consortium also included INBRAIN Neuroelectronics, imec, Fraunhofer, Leiden...

Physicists have found striking evidence for an unusual form of superconducting behavior in uranium ditelluride, where electron pairs organize into rippling patterns called pair density waves. Even more surprisingly, these patterns appear to survive after ordinary...

First Graphene has received an initial purchase order from US-based Flux Footwear, its first production application in athletic footwear. Flux will use the company's PureGRAPH graphene additive in its Graphene XT performance gym shoes and leisure range. The additive...

Researchers have captured key steps in a chemical reaction that helps nature transfer energy with remarkable efficiency. Ultrafast X-rays revealed how changes involving electrons and protons are closely linked to the rearrangement of surrounding water molecules....

UK-based Duo Packaging has developed a graphene-enhanced polyethylene film for flexible packaging, created with the University of Manchester's Graphene Engineering Innovation Center (GEIC) and backed by the Innovation Navigator Programme. The material, branded 2DPE,...

Scientists have discovered evidence of altermagnetism in a thin, highly tunable material that could help electronics use electron spin instead of relying only on electrical charge. The unusual magnetic state may enable faster, more energy-efficient devices without the...
