Aeluma has secured more than $4 million in U.S. government contracts to accelerate its heterogeneous integration platform for quantum and high-speed datacom applications, a funding boost that arrives as the company expands manufacturing partnerships and pushes its photonics technology toward scale.
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.
A new Nature Materials issue published in April 2026 spotlights direct visualization of the moiré potential in rhombohedral graphene, a step that could help researchers design 2D-material devices with tighter control over electronic behavior.
Researchers have reported a new graphene milestone: direct observation of electron-electron interactions at room temperature using a quantum twisting microscope. The finding, published April 8, 2026 in Nature Communications, could help advance research into graphene and other two-dimensional materials.
