Massachusetts-based 6K turns metals, including scrap, into high-performance materials for various applications, like lithium-ion batteries, additive manufacturing powders, ceramics, and other offerings that are tailored for specific industry needs. In 2023, the company signed contracts to provide the U.S. Army with materials for 3D printing and to provide materials science company Forge Nano with ingredients […]
Scientists from Ames National Laboratory have identified the first unconventional superconductor with a chemical composition also found in nature. Miassite is one of only four minerals found in nature that act as a superconductor when grown in the lab. The team’s investigation of miassite revealed that it is an unconventional superconductor with properties similar to […]
Materials that are incredibly thin, only a few atoms thick, exhibit unique properties that make them appealing for energy storage, catalysis and water purification. Researchers at Linköping University have now developed a method that enables the synthesis of hundreds of new 2D materials. Since the discovery of graphene, the field of research in extremely thin […]
See the newest silicon photonics computer chips that use laser waveguides instead of metal connections.
The Nikon Industrial Metrology Business Unit, out of Europe, has released AI Reconstruction, an innovative 3D computed tomography (CT) reconstruction software solution powered by artificial intelligence that lifts the traditional trade-off between scan speed and image quality.
