Modern high-performance chips are marvels of engineering, containing tens of billions of transistors. The problem is, you can’t use them all at once. If you did, you would create hot spots—high ...

A startup backed by Sandia National Laboratories thinks it's found a cool new way to keep the world's supercomputers and datacenters cool enough to run efficiently: Zap ‘em with lasers.… Yes, we are ...

Laser cooling has emerged as a transformative methodology for controlling the motion of atoms and molecules, utilising the momentum of light to reduce thermal motion at ultra‐low temperatures. This ...

Additive Manufacturing (AM) is booming. According to a recent report from Persistence Market Research, the sector is currently on pace to grow by more than 22% this year and is expected to double in ...

Maxwell Labs, a startup developing an innovative cooling technology that uses lasers and gallium arsenide (GaAs) semiconductors, has received a $500,000 grant through a government-backed program to ...

An artistic illustration of the movement of an antihydrogen atom in the ALPHA magnetic trap, before (grey) and after (blue) laser cooling. The images show various lengths of the antihydrogen's track.

Forward-looking: Chips are becoming increasingly powerful and dense, and keeping them cool enough is a growing challenge. We've tried air cooling, liquid cooling, immersion cooling, and just about ...

The international AEgIS (Antimatter Experiment: gravity, Interferometry, Spectroscopy) collaboration at CERN, in which Prof. Giovanni Consolati of the Department of Aerospace Science and Technology ...

Laser cooling isn't a new idea, but this is the first time it's actually worked in real-world conditions. Share on Facebook (opens in a new window) Share on X (opens in a new window) Share on Reddit ...

A new study tests a laser powder bed fused milling cutter with conformal cooling, a design aimed at cooler, longer running ...
