Researchers used pulsed sub-atomic layer deposition to control both composition and metal-atom distribution in Mo-W-S2 monolayers across the full MoS2-to-WS2 range. The study shows how engineered line structures and elongated islands can shift excitonic emission, pointing toward future quantum-dot and quantum-wire-like 2D materials.

Master Bond MasterSil 981-LO is a two component, addition cured silicone system designed for bonding, sealing, coating, and encapsulating applications.
China is set to significantly expand its caustic soda production capacity as it seeks to meet surging domestic demand from various sectors, mainly alumina refining, battery materials, and cleaning product manufacturing.
Researchers at Ames National Laboratory are advancing the discovery of materials for rare-earth-free permanent magnets by combining fundamental physics with artificial intelligence.
Researchers mapped more than 9,000 young CO2-rich igneous rock samples and found that lithospheric thickness strongly controls where these unusual magmas form. The findings show that deep Earth structure can help predict carbonatite-hosted rare-earth element deposits, with implications for critical mineral exploration.

Scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory are helping show what it means to design a material almost atom-by-atom.
Onto Innovation’s Tucson-based subsidiary 4D Technology announced today the launch of the 4Di InSpec™ SR roughness measurement system - a novel, portable, vibration-immune optical system for high-precision 3D surface roughness measurement at the point of use.
A six-country Belt and Road analysis found that mineral resources, regional economies, and mineral product imports became more closely coordinated from 2017 to 2022. The findings suggest that regional infrastructure, trade links, and resource-development policies may help countries capture greater economic value from mineral resources.
