Researchers reported a metal-organic framework that anchors arsenic-based ligands around rhodium, improving hydroformylation yield and selectivity while sharply reducing arsenic leaching. The result could make a long-discussed catalyst design more practical for industrial chemistry.
First Graphene has secured exclusive global rights to develop, market and sell a graphene-enhanced carbon paste already used in perovskite solar cells, a step that widens the company’s commercialization path beyond the lab and into manufacturing planning.
Researchers backing an ESA parabolic-flight campaign reported that ultralight graphene aerogels surged forward when exposed to laser light in microgravity, a result that could inform future propellant-free spacecraft control systems.
Paragraf has signed a memorandum of understanding with INTRATOMICS to jointly develop graphene-enabled sensor technologies, a new collaboration that pushes graphene biosensor work further toward applied development and evaluation.
MIT researchers have reported a new way to grow moiré crystals from atomically thin materials at scale, a development that could ease a major fabrication bottleneck in two-dimensional electronics. In the same study, the team found electronic behavior that maps onto a synthetic fourth dimension, opening a new route for quantum materials research.
MIT researchers say they have found a scalable chemical route to grow high-quality moiré crystals, a development that could help move two-dimensional quantum materials beyond hand-built laboratory devices.
