Researchers at Brown University have overcome a major obstacle to creating ultra-low-power computer chips that could help slash the energy demands of AI. Their breakthrough eliminates a long-standing "dead layer" problem that causes promising materials to stop working...

Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania have developed artificial muscle fibers that sense their own contraction state and hold intermediate positions on demand, a capability that has largely eluded soft actuators. The fibers, called CoilLCE, combine a liquid...

Scientists have discovered a faster way to identify diamond-based materials that could power quantum computers and sensors at room temperature. The breakthrough has already revealed promising new quantum building blocks that could help unlock computing capabilities...

Graphene Innovations Manchester (GIM) has opened a new advanced materials factory in Trafford Park, Manchester. The facility was officially opened on November 10, 2026 by Bev Craig, Mayor of Greater Manchester, and marks the company’s move from research and...

Taiwanese memory and storage maker Apacer has developed a thermal solution for industrial DDR5 memory modules built around a copper-graphene composite layer, which the company says lowers module temperatures by over 20°C in systems with no active cooling. The product,...

Researchers from Zhejiang University, Tsinghua University, Changsha University of Science and Technology and the Chinese Academy of Sciences’ Institute of Physics have developed graphene films that combine high strength, toughness and elasticity. The team says the...

First Graphene has received a repeat order of about A$35,000 (about US$24,000) for its PureGRAPH graphene from a US customer supplying defense applications, along with its first two commercial orders for a newly developed graphene oxide product. The three orders have...

Researchers at the Korea Institute of Industrial Technology (KITECH), Hanyang University and several other institutions in South Korea have developed a flexible electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding film made from graphene nanoplatelets that, the team says,...

Scientists have discovered a surprising quantum limit that prevents electrons from being tracked with unlimited precision in both space and time. The breakthrough could pave the way for manipulating chemical reactions and developing electronics hundreds of thousands...
