Scientists have leaped over a major hurdle in efforts to begin commercial production of a form of carbon that could rival silicon in its potential for revolutionizing electronics devices ranging from supercomputers to cell phones.
Researchers at Oregon State University and the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory have discovered a new way to apply nanostructure coatings to make heat transfer far more efficient, with important potential applications to high tech devices as well as the conventional heating and cooling industry.
Vorbeck Materials Corp., the world’s leading producer of graphene-based materials and manufacturer of the world’s first commercial graphene-based product, Vor-ink conductive inks, announces a new conductive ink formulation for flexographic printing, Vor-ink Flexo.
Writing in the journal Advanced Materials, a team of materials scientists and physicists say graphene has the potential to replace carbon fibres in high performance materials that are used to build aircraft.
X-FAB Silicon Foundries, the leading analog/mixed-signal foundry and expert in “More than Moore” technologies, today announced it will expand its foundry service to include 8-inch (200mm) MEMS wafer processing. Moving to the larger wafer diameter and monolithic MEMS/CMOS integration allows significant reductions in manufacturing costs.
Solexant Corp., developer of third-generation ultrathin-film PV technology, today announced the $41.5M first close of a Series C financing round following the successful completion of a 2MW pilot line operating at the company’s headquarters.
Graphene, a carbon sheet that is one-atom thick, may be at the center of the next revolution in material science.
Unidym, a majority owned subsidiary of Arrowhead Research, announced today that it has finalized an agreement with Tokyo Electron (TEL) to develop manufacturing equipment for carbon nanotube based displays and solar cells.
From the World Science Festival in New York, IBM Fellow Dr. Donald M. Eigler was awarded the most prestigious honor in nanoscience, The Kavli Prize, sharing the honor with Nadrian Seeman, a professor at New York University.
