Researchers at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have developed a novel method for creating nanofibers that boosts the production rate significantly, and at the same time reduces energy usage by over 90%.
Hamamatsu Photonics K.K., one of the world’s leading producers of photodetectors and imagers today announced that it has licensed certain Arradiance intellectual property for Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) nanofilms. This revolutionary technology, the subject of 11 issued US patents and several pending US and worldwide patents, is a foundational technology for next generation photomultiplier tubes (PMT) in use at several high energy physics installations worldwide.
Horizon Technology Finance Corporation ("Horizon"), a leading specialty finance company that provides capital in the form of secured loans to venture capital backed companies in the technology, life science, healthcare information and services and cleantech industries, announced today it has closed a $10 million venture loan facility to The NanoSteel Company, Inc. ("NanoSteel"), a leader in nano-structured steel materials design. NanoSteel will use the proceeds for general working capital purposes.
Ultratech, Inc., a leading supplier of lithography, laser processing and inspection systems used to manufacture semiconductor devices and highbrightness LEDs (HB LEDs), as well as atomic layer deposition (ALD) systems, announced that its Cambridge NanoTech business unit Ultratech-CNT has delivered a new, second-generation production tool, the Phoenix G2 Batch ALD system to a major Japanese manufacturer.
Researchers at the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology Graduate University (OIST) have eliminated problematic pinholes in the top layer of next-generation solar cells in development. At the same time, they have significantly improved the lifetime of the solar cell and made it thinner. The findings were recently published in Scientific Reports.
A research group at Tohoku University has succeeded in fabricating an atomically thin, high-temperature superconductor film with a superconducting transition temperature (Tc) of up to 60 K (-213?). The team, led by Prof. Takashi Takahashi (WPI-AIMR) and Asst. Prof. Kosuke Nakayama (Dept. of Physics), also established the method to control/tune the Tc.
Canatu, a manufacturer of next-generation transparent conductive films and touch sensors, has today announced a design win for a first-to-market fully flexible product.
Mitsui Chemicals, Inc. and its 100% subsidiary, Mitsui Chemicals Industrial Products Ltd. announced that Mitsui Chemicals’ high performance antibacterial/anti-odor copper coating film, Copper StopperTM, which is distributed and serviced by Mitsui Chemicals Industrial Products, was selected by Ace Co., Ltd. for use in the interior fabric (copper jacquard) of their world-standard luggage line, ProtecA.
