Students build low-cost cold spray metal 3D printer prototype

Rice University students in Houston, Texas, have developed a cold spray metal 3D printing device that uses pressure and velocity instead of temperature, potentially expanding the capabilities and reducing the costs of metal additive manufacturing and repairing for complex, one-off parts.

Penn State, Morgan Advanced Materials partner to improve semiconductor materials

Penn State and Morgan Advanced Materials have signed an MOU to accelerate research and development of silicon carbide (SiC), a semiconductor material that excels at high voltages. This collaborative agreement spans a new five-year, multimillion-dollar initiative. The initiative brings together industry leaders, academic institutions, and government support, aiming to advance SiC crystal research and workforce development. The agreement also includes a commitment by Morgan […]
