Researchers at Rice University have developed a catalyst that uses light instead of heat to drive the reaction in Steam Methane Reforming (SMR), a key process in global hydrogen production. This innovation could make SMR entirely emissions-free, addressing the significant greenhouse gas emissions associated with the chemical process.
With $1.8 million from the National Science Foundation’s second Future of Semiconductor program (FuSe2), the University of Kansas and the University of Houston will collaborate to develop atomically tunable memory resistors, or "memristors," for brain-inspired advanced computing, while also preparing the workforce for the nation’s semiconductor industry.
Layered assembly of 2D materials such as graphene have potential roles in the development of new electronic devices. Manufacturing these materials at a large scale while making them atomically clean is a major challenge. In this study, researchers used a special robotic system to assemble graphene heterostructures into large sheets with atomically clean interfaces.
A recent collaboration among researchers from HUN-REN Wigner Research Centre for Physics in Hungary and the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, along with industry collaborators SandboxAQ and NVIDIA, has achieved unprecedented speed and performance in efforts to model complex metal-containing molecules.
