Peking University’s 3-Layer Cooling System Handles Record Chip Heat Loads
Peking University engineers built a three-layer microfluidic cooling device that manages 3,000 W/cm² heat flux with just 0.9 W/cm² pumping power. Using manifold, microjet, and microchannel layers, it dissipates heat efficiently, promising a leap toward cooler, smaller, and more power-efficient chip designs.

Japan’s Universal Memory Breakthrough Reduces Energy, Boosts Speed
Scientists in Japan have developed a new type of "universal memory" that could revolutionise computing. Their improved MRAM technology overcomes previous energy limitations by using a multiferroic heterostructure with a vanadium layer for stability. This allows for faster data processing while significantly reducing power consumption, making future...

Chinese Astronauts Successfully Generate Oxygen and Rocket Fuel Through Artificial Photosynthesis in Space
Chinese astronauts aboard the Tiangong space station have made a significant breakthrough by successfully producing oxygen and rocket fuel through artificial photosynthesis. Using carbon dioxide and water, the process mimics the natural photosynthesis found in plants, with the potential to produce methane or formic acid with minor adjustments. Unli...

New Polymer Set to Revolutionize Flexible Displays with Low Energy Consumption
Researchers at Purdue University have created a novel transparent polymer, n-doped poly(benzodifurandione) (n-PBDF), which promises to revolutionize electrochromic displays. The polymer combines transparency, conductivity, and ion-storage properties, offering energy-efficient and flexible displays for various applications. Demonstrated in a full-co...

Two Private Lunar Landers Launch Aboard SpaceX Falcon 9 for Moon Missions
Marking a milestone in space exploration, two private lunar landers, Blue Ghost by Firefly Aerospace and Resilience by ispace, were launched aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center on January 15. Blue Ghost, under NASA's CLPS program, will study lunar regolith and environmental elements, landing in Mare Crisium. Resilienc...

Scientists Achieve Time-Reversal Symmetry With Kagome Superconductor
A team at the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) has achieved a breakthrough with the Kagome superconductor RbV3Sb5, demonstrating time-reversal symmetry (TRS) breaking at 175 Kelvin. This discovery at higher temperatures than typically possible could pave the way for more energy-efficient and practical quantum systems, crucial for quantum computing and...

Indian Researchers Develop Energy-Efficient Method to Create Glass, Could Improve Efficiency of Data Centres
Scientists from IISc, University of Pennsylvania, and MIT reveal a breakthrough with indium selenide that transforms crystalline structures to glass using significantly less energy. By passing a continuous electric current, the crystalline material experiences a “shock” that converts it to glass. The low energy requirement could help lower powe...
