The Graphene Handbook helps separate real commercial traction from graphene hype
Graphene has spent over a decade attracting bold claims - "wonder material" headlines, ambitious production announcements, and startups promising imminent breakthroughs that don't always pan out. The Graphene Handbook by Graphene-Info is built to help readers...
KERI grows graphene and graphite thin films directly on substrates at room temperature
Researchers at the Power Cable Research Center of the Korea Electrotechnology Research Institute (KERI) have modified a standard industrial sputtering system to grow carbon films directly on substrates at room temperature, producing everything from ultra-thin one- to...
Quantum computer simulates matter “popping into existence”
Scientists recreated a particle-forming process linked to the extreme physics of the early universe using a 13-ion quantum simulator. The breakthrough suggests quantum computers could eventually help researchers investigate how matter formed and evolved after the Big...
Graphene recovered from used sensors can be reprinted five times without performance loss
Researchers at Silicon Austria Labs (SAL) and EPFL have developed a recyclable, surfactant-free graphene nanoplatelet (GNP) ink that uses linalool ,a terpene alcohol that occurs naturally in lavender, basil and other aromatic plants, as its solvent and ethyl cellulose...
Quantum computing’s “dark horse” just proved it can go universal
Researchers have shown that exotic quantum particles called non-Abelian anyons can perform the full range of operations needed for universal quantum computing. Using 54 qubits on Quantinuum’s H2 processor, they combined braiding and fusion to unlock capabilities that...
Distant time crystals can somehow fall into the same rhythm
Researchers have shown that multiple time crystals inside a semiconductor can synchronize their oscillations, much like pendulum clocks gradually falling into the same rhythm. The coupling is carried by spin-polarized electrons, allowing time crystals separated by up...
Zentek pre-qualifies to supply graphene coatings for Canada’s defense drone program
Zentek has been pre-qualified under the Government of Canada's Defense Drone Initiative Marketplace, a supplier pool for uncrewed and autonomous systems managed by the Defense Investment Agency on behalf of the Department of National Defense. The five-year supply...
The LHC just ruled out another hiding place for quantum black holes
Physicists searching through Large Hadron Collider data found no evidence that the machine has been producing microscopic quantum black holes, but the result sharply narrows where such exotic physics could still be hiding. These hypothetical black holes could form if...
GMG secures US$10 million private placement to scale graphene and battery production
Graphene Manufacturing Group (GMG) will issue roughly 6.5 million shares to a private investor at CA$2.15 (about US$1.53) each in a private placement raising approximately US$10 million. The raise is subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval and is expected to close on...
