Two MIT teams selected for NSF sustainable materials grants

Two MIT-led teams received funding from the National Science Foundation to investigate quantum topological materials and sustainable microchip production.

How light can vaporize water without the need for heat

Researchers at MIT have discovered a new phenomenon: that light can cause evaporation of water from its surface without the need for heat. Pictured is a lab device designed to measure the “photomolecular effect,” using laser beams.

Propelling atomically layered magnets toward green computers

The flow of electrical current in the bottom crystalline slab (representing WTe2) breaks a mirror symmetry (shattered glass), while the material itself breaks the other mirror symmetry (cracked glass). The resulting spin current has vertical polarization that switches the magnetic state of the top 2D ferromagnet.

MIT Center for Sustainability Science and Strategy

The contribution of sulfur hexafluoride to the greenhouse effect is more than 24,000 times that of carbon dioxide; the gas is commonly used in electric power grids. A new study quantifies China’s contribution to global SF6 emissions and locates their sources.

Researchers harness 2D magnetic materials for energy-efficient computing

This illustration shows electric current being pumped into platinum (the bottom slab), which results in the creation of an electron spin current that switches the magnetic state of the 2D ferromagnet on top. The colored spheres represent the atoms in the 2D material.
