No-Magnets Motor from C-Motive Lauded in DOE Competition 

Make a five-minute pitch to a thousand plum contacts and potential funders, win $20,000 and a shot at $500,000. It was a good day’s work for start-up C-Motive at the U.S Department of Energy EPIC competition — drawing attention to the company’s innovative electrostatic motor that uses printed circuit boards instead of magnets.  […]

Breakthrough in Magnetic Quantum Material Paves Way for Ultra-Fast Sustainable Computers

The discovery of new quantum materials with magnetic properties are believed to pave the way for ultra-fast and considerably more energy efficient computers and mobile devices. So far, these types of materials have been shown to work only in extremely cold temperatures. Now, a research team at Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden are the first to make a device made of a two-dimensional magnetic material work in at room temperature. […]
