Researchers at the Department of Energy’s Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, Richland, Wash., found that adding a small amount of solid carbon to copper boosts its ability to conduct electricity—industry applications abound.
Zurich Instruments, Switzerland, joins forces with two leading experimental labs at ETH Zurich and MIT, the quantum computing startup Atlantic Quantum, and leading theorists at Université de Sherbrooke and Forschungszentrum Jülich to participate in the SuperMOOSE project, which aims to entangle two error-corrected qubits and thus lay the foundation for future quantum computers.
Imec, Belgium, a world-leading research and innovation hub in nanoelectronics and digital technologies, created a perovskite LED stack that emits light a thousand times brighter than state-of-the-art OLEDs, representing a pivotal milestone towards the development of a perovskite injection laser with potential applications in image projection, environmental sensing, medical diagnostics.
AMETEK Gatan, Inc., Pleasanton, Calif., a global leader focused on enhancing and extending the operation and productivity of electron microscopes, launched Monarc Pro T system that reveals structural, optical, and electric properties of materials at the nanosale by enabling optically-coupled experiments in transmission electron microscopes.
Researchers at Nagoya University in Japan used artificial intelligence to discover a new method to understand dislocations in polycrystalline materials, materials widely used in information equipment, solar cells, and electronic devices, that can reduce their efficiency.
