Researchers at the U. S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Ames National Laboratory have discovered a way to control the handedness of magnons, tiny magnetic waves that can carry information through materials.
Researchers at the Department of Energy's (DOE's) Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) and their collaborators used lasers and neutrons to observe a long-lived quantum state in a magnetic material, opening a new way to study materials systems driven far from their equilibrium.
Understanding how materials form is critical to discovering new ones. Researchers at the U. S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Ames National Laboratory have found that a technology they originally developed for crystal growth can also help map the conditions under which materials form, providing data that may improve materials discovery efforts.
Uncountable, the AI platform for end-to-end product development, has launched an environmental monitoring capability for food, beverage, cosmetics, specialty chemicals, and other process manufacturers, as well as pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that operate classified cleanrooms.
Introducing X-Spin: a revolutionary NMR software platform that streamlines workflows, ensures data integrity, and supports compliance in modern laboratories.
Researchers developed a solar-spectrum-driven photocatalytic leaching method that uses mild organic acids and a reusable catalyst to extract critical metals from spent lithium-ion battery cathodes under simulated sunlight. The system achieved high leaching efficiencies across several cathode chemistries, while process modeling projected lower environmental impacts and competitive economics compared with conventional recycling routes.

A new partnership between Lucideon and Excelitas® is utilizing the power of Xenon Flash lamp technology to deliver the next generation of high-performance ceramic materials, in sectors including aerospace, nuclear, and energy.
Crystal Pharmatech, a science-driven CRO/CDMO specializing in solid-state research, preformulation studies, and formulation development and manufacturing for small-molecule drugs, today announced that installation of the ELDICO ED-1 electron diffractometer at its Suzhou, China R&D center is complete.
Researchers developed a generally room-temperature, additive-free nickel method that activates strong C-F bonds in polyfluoroarenes to form air- and moisture-stable nickel(II) diaryl complexes from commercially available starting materials. The complexes show high regioselectivity, tolerate several reactive functional groups, and respond differently to heat and light depending on their aryl and bipyridine substituents.

Mouser Electronics, Inc., the New Product Introduction (NPI) leader™ empowering innovation, today announces the newest issue of the Methods technology and solutions journal, available with a free subscription.
Researchers developed a photolithography-compatible electroforming process that co-deposits mechanically fibrillated cellulose nanofibers with carboxymethyl cellulose to create thin, free-standing microscale structures. The composite films averaged about 4.2 GPa in Young’s modulus, while a 300 nm suspended bridge resonated at 23.34 kHz under vacuum, with modeling indicating residual tensile stress from constrained drying.

Conventional lithium-ion batteries are nearing their practical energy limit of about 300 Wh kg-1, while liquid electrolytes raise leakage and fire risks.
Ford Motor Company has announced plans to implement bidirectional power in a new mid-size electric vehicle (EV) truck in 2027.
A research team led by Professor Seong Sik Shin of the SKKU Advanced Institute of Nanotechnology (SAINT) at Sungkyunkwan University (SKKU), in international collaboration with the Korea Research Institute of Chemical Technology (KRICT), the University of California, San Diego, and Princeton University, has developed a next-generation perovskite semiconductor thin film with dramatically reduced defects. Using the same material platform, the researchers successfully demonstrated both high-performance solar cells and LEDs.
A Korean research team has developed a transfer printing process that enables solid electrolytes, a key component of solid-state batteries, to be fabricated as very thin, uniform, and defect-free layers over large areas.
