MIT researchers have designed a system that uses flames to produce materials critical to lithium-ion batteries. Their combustion-based method promises to be simpler, much quicker, and far less energy-intensive than the conventional method now used to manufacture cathode materials.
MIT researchers have developed a sensor to make it much easier to ensure a good face mask fit and it can be applied to any kind of mask.
MIT Professor Michael Birnbaum was recognized as Committed to Caring for his honest and valuable mentorship, as well as his passion for diversity and departmental leadership.
MIT researchers have found an efficient way to identify “topological” materials, whose surfaces can have different electrical or functional properties than their interiors. The approach should make it easier uncover materials that could be the basis of next-generation computer chips or quantum devices.
Wearing a mask can help stop the spread of viruses like SARS-CoV-2, but how well it fits will determine how successful it is.
