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.

Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide Soars to 424PPM, Marking Biggest Yearly Jump Ever
The WMO reports Earth’s atmospheric CO₂ reached 422.8 ppm in 2024 — the biggest annual rise ever recorded. Driven by fossil-fuel emissions, wildfires, and weakening carbon sinks, the surge intensifies global warming. Scientists warn that delayed emission cuts could entrench irreversible changes in weather, ecosystems, and sea levels.

Gold Defies Physics: Remains Solid at 14x Its Melting Point in Superheating Experiment
Gold has amazed scientists by remaining solid under extreme temperatures—14 times its standard melting point—due to superheating. The study highlights how conventional physics may not fully explain ultra-fast reactions. These groundbreaking results, published in collaboration with international labs, have far-reaching implications for high-ener...

Metamaterial Breaks Thermal Symmetry, Enables One-Way Heat Emission
Scientists have created a groundbreaking metamaterial that breaks Kirchhoff’s law by emitting 43% more mid-infrared radiation in one direction than it absorbs. Built from layered InGaAs and tested at 512°F with a 5T magnetic field, the structure exhibits record thermal nonreciprocity. This breakthrough enables controlled one-way heat flow, a ste...
