A clever quantum trick brings practical quantum computers closer
Quantum computers struggle because their qubits are incredibly easy to disrupt, especially during calculations. A new experiment shows how to perform quantum operations while continuously fixing errors, rather than pausing protection to compute. The team used a...
Researchers observe superfluid-insulator transition in bilayer graphene excitons
Researchers from Columbia University, Brown University, University of Texas at Austin and the National Institute for Materials Science have observed a unique quantum phase transition in bilayer graphene, where an excitonic superfluid abruptly becomes an insulator,...
This paper-thin chip turns invisible light into a steerable beam
Researchers have built a paper-thin chip that converts infrared light into visible light and directs it precisely, all without mechanical motion. The design overcomes a long-standing efficiency-versus-control problem in light-shaping materials. This opens the door...
A superfluid freezes and breaks the rules of physics
Physicists have watched a quantum fluid do something once thought almost impossible: stop moving. In experiments with ultra-thin graphene, researchers observed a superfluid—normally defined by its endless, frictionless flow—freeze into a strange new state that...
INBRAIN’s “rice‑sized” graphene BCI chip marks new phase in Merck collaboration
INBRAIN Neuroelectronics has announced a step forward in its long‑running collaboration with Merck, highlighting a new bidirectional, “rice‑sized” graphene BCI chip and a fresh push toward commercialization, including a speech‑decoding clinical trial.The...
QUT researchers secure funding to turn waste into graphene cooling materials
The Australian Economic Accelerator Ignite program has granted funding to seven Queensland University of Technology (QUT) research teams, totaling in more than AU$2.7 million (around US$1.9 million). The projects are part of a AU$725 million national investment to...
Agenda Update: Skeleton Technologies joins Graphene Connect 2026!
We’re pleased to share that Graphene Connect 2026 - the online meeting point for the graphene and 2D materials community - continues to grow with another impressive addition. Skeleton Technologies, a European leader in high-power energy storage, will present “From...
Graphene-enhanced wallpaper trial launched in Fareham military homes
VIVO Defence Services, which provides maintenance services on behalf of the MOD’s Defence Infrastructure Organisation to more than 27,000 military homes in southeast and southwest England, is conducting data-monitored testing at two military housing sites in...
Dreamfly Innovations raises US$328,000
India-based energy-tech startup Dreamfly Innovations has raised almost US$328,000 in non-dilutive venture debt from SIDBI. The proceeds will be used to support working capital and expand manufacturing capacity as the company scales operations.Backed by Avaana...
A tiny light trap could unlock million qubit quantum computers
A new light-based breakthrough could help quantum computers finally scale up. Stanford researchers created miniature optical cavities that efficiently collect light from individual atoms, allowing many qubits to be read at once. The team has already demonstrated...
