Scientists from Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden have developed an insulation material that is about three times less conductive than the performance of typical high-voltage direct current ...

MXene nanoscrolls transform flat 2D materials into conductive 1D structures, unlocking advances in energy storage, sensing, wearables, and superconductivity. Nearly 15 years after identifying a ...

An international team of researchers has developed a breakthrough method for producing MXenes—an important family of ...

Feng, Triphasic synthesis of MXenes with uniform and controlled halogen terminations, in Nature Synthesis, 2026. (DOI: 10.1038/s44160-025-00970-w) ...

Georgia Tech scientists have discovered a new quantum state in a quirky material. In a phenomenon never before seen in anything else, the team found that applying a magnetic field increased the ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Electronic devices work through precise control over the flow of electricity. While typical materials act as either conductors or insulators, the ability to switch between these ...

Modern technologies continue to become lighter, smaller, and faster, although the conductors used to power these technologies remain relatively unchanged. Conventional metal conductors, largely copper ...

An international team of researchers has developed a breakthrough method for producing MXenes—an important family of two-dimensional materials—with unprecedented purity and control. The new ...

Recent theoretical studies, however, had suggested that some metallic-like materials could break this record. θ-TaN, a metastable transition metal nitride, was among the most promising contenders, but ...

Aerosol jet printing combines the conductive properties of silver nanoparticles with the flexibility and biocompatibility of ...
