Superconductivity is caused by specially linked pairs of electrons known as Cooper pairs. So far, the occurrence of Cooper pairs has been measured indirectly macroscopically in bulk, but a new technique developed by researchers at Aalto University and Oak Ridge National Laboratory in the U.S. can detect their occurrence with atomic precision.
Jabil strengthens additive manufacturing offerings
Jabil Inc. has launched PK 5000, an eco-friendly, powder-based additive material engineered to deliver improved strength, chemical resistance, and resilience in comparison to general-purpose nylon materials, such as PA 12. This patent-pending material has been formulated to support highly demanding automotive, consumer electronics, defense, medical, and industrial manufacturing applications.
MIT scientists unveil a secret of stronger metals
Researchers at MIT are now able to analyze exactly what happens as these crystal grains form during an extreme deformation process, at the tiniest scales, down to a few nanometers across.
How to image atoms
Video description In this video from MIT.nano see how to image the tiny building blocks for all materials: the atom.
