Turning Natural Gas into Green Gold

December 24, 2025

Scientists have cooked up a clever way to turn natural gas into two super useful things: clean hydrogen fuel and strong, lightweight carbon nanotubes. This isn't just any old method. It's a smart reactor that recycles gas until it's almost all used up. No more wasting resources! The big deal here i

Tiny Tubes, Big Impact: Reinventing Aluminum

November 18, 2025

Aluminum has always been a popular choice for making things light and strong. But what if it could be even stronger? That's where single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) come in. These tiny tubes are incredibly strong and have a large surface area, making them perfect for reinforcing materials. The

Cracking the Code on Cheap and Efficient Hydrogen Fuel

October 29, 2025

Making hydrogen fuel without expensive metals is a big deal for clean energy. Scientists have cooked up a new recipe using cheap materials to split water into hydrogen and oxygen. They started with a special kind of crystal and added a tiny bit of iron. When they heated it up and treated it with pho

Cold Fuses: Revolutionizing Chip Memory with Nano Technology

January 24, 2025

You know how chips need to remember important stuff? Well, there's a special type of memory called one-time programmable (OTP) that does just that. The thing is, traditional OTP memory uses a lot of power. Why? It needs to heat up to remember things. Enter the clever scientists! They found a neat t

Carbon Nanotubes and MoS2: A New Twist on Ternary Circuits

January 17, 2025

Imagine a world where computers process more data using simpler systems. That's the promise of multivalued logic (MVL) systems, which go beyond the usual binary logic. Scientists have been trying to make these systems work better using negative transconductance (NTC) devices made from thin semicondu

Boosting Zinc-Air Batteries with Designed Carbon Composites

November 25, 2024

You might think that making batteries is just about throwing some chemicals together. But scientists are getting really clever about it! They’re mixing carbon nanotubes and graphene to make special composites. These composites have nitrogen (N) and sulfur (S) added in just the right way to make zinc
