Asymmetric Chemical Vapor Deposition (A-CVD) for Manufacturing Thick, High-Quality Graphite Films
Efficient thermal management is critical for modern electronics, including integrated circuits and data centers, as well as specialized industrial components. These applications demand materials with ultra-high thermal conductivity. While graphite is an ideal candidate, the thermal conductivity of currently available mass-produced graphitic products is often insufficient due to the low crystal quality inherent in standard […] Read More >
Scalable Wet-Etching Technology for High-Resolution MXene Microelectrodes
MXenes are an emerging class of highly conductive, two dimensional materials that combine metallic performance with solution based processing. These properties position MXenes as promising candidates for next generation technologies in microelectronics, sensing, and flexible devices. Despite their potential, widespread adoption has been limited by the lack of a practical and scalable method that can […] Read More >
Biocompatible Reinforcement of Cellularized Tissues Using Small Molecule Crosslinkers
Existing chemical crosslinking methods such as UV-based, genipin or enzymatic are often cytotoxic and incompatible with the presence of living cells, or result in inhomogeneous reinforcement (primarily surface over core). Moreover, reinforcing ECM whilst ensuring uniform cell viability and spatial distribution in thick tissues remains challenging, particularly when robust mechanical properties are needed post-fabrication. Technology […] Read More >
Light-Controlled Nanostructured Device for Biomolecule Separation
In the realms of proteomics, genomics, and biosensing, the analysis of complex biological samples such as blood and urine presents significant challenges. These samples contain a vast array of biomolecules, often exceeding 10,000 proteins with concentration variations spanning over 10 orders of magnitude. Traditional methods like chromatography, electrophoresis, and centrifugation are either time-consuming or lack […] Read More >
Hierarchically Structured Core/ Sheath Microfibers for Filtration, Separation, and Catalysis Applications
The development of synthetic fibers that mimic the complex, hierarchical nano-to-microscale structures found in nature, like cellulose and silk, can potentially revolutionize various fields, from smart active textiles to environmental science an sustainability. These fibers, which contain internal features spanning from the nano- to the microscale, can exhibit superior properties compared to conventional fibers, opening […] Read More >
Anti-Oxidation Agent to be Incorporated Into Cosmetics Leading to More Stable and Longer Shelf-Life Products
Oxidation is the reaction of Oxygen with a wide array of reactants. In cosmetics, product oxidation leads to spoilage of ingredients used in the manufacturing products, the inactivation of oxygen-sensitive enzymes, shortening of product shelf-life, and discolorations of end-product. Self-assembling peptide-based hydrogels are simple hydrogels that can be combined with a wide variety of ingredients […] Read More >
Oxygen-Scavenging Peptide Hydrogel for Enzyme Protection
Unmet Need: • O2-sensitive enzymes like [FeFe]-hydrogenase lose activity within seconds of ambient air exposure, severely limiting their industrial and sustainable energy applications • Lack of passive protection methods: Existing O2 protection technologies require continuous energy investment or complex systems to maintain anaerobic conditions The technology: • FmocFF peptide hydrogel: Self-assembling fluorenyl-methyloxycarbonyl-diphenylalanine forms 3D nanofibrillar […] Read More >
Heterogeneous structures comprising III-V semiconductors and metal oxide dielectrics,and a method of fabrication thereof.
Electron mobility in bulk III-V semiconductors is about an order of magnitude higher than in silicon, which promises much faster nanometer-scale electronics in GaAs-based devices. However, fabrication of metal oxide – semiconductor field effect transistors (MOSFETs), the central element of modern electronics, with III-V semiconductors is hampered for years by the unresolved problem of the […] Read More >
