The McKinsey guide to outcompeting in the age of digital and AI

AZoNano speaks with researchers from the Talapin Lab, University of Chicago, about a new method to synthesize MXenes that is less toxic than conventional approaches.

Researchers at the Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering (PME) at the University of Chicago are exploring what happens when you try to split a phonon. In two experiments – the first of their kinds – a team led by Prof. Andrew Cleland used a device called an acoustic beamsplitter to “split” phonons and thereby demonstrate their quantum properties. By showing that the beamsplitter can be used to both induce a special quantum superposition state for one phonon, and further create interfe...

Despite their immense promise to solve new kinds of problems, today’s quantum computers are inherently prone to error. A small perturbation in...

Quantum research and technology is fast developing but still in its infancy. However, its impact is ultimately expected to be transformational.

A plentiful supply of clean energy is lurking in plain sight. It is the hydrogen we can extract from water (H2O) using renewable energy.

Researchers have developed a low-cost cobalt-based catalyst for use in an electrolyzer that produces hydrogen from water.

A team has developed a new catalyst composed of elements abundant in the Earth. It could make possible the low-cost and energy-efficient production of hydrogen for use in transportation and industrial applications.

Clean hydrogen could not only propel vehicles with no emitted pollutants but also help decarbonize industrial processes.
