Researchers at Cornell University have developed a game-changing compound that is not only cost-effective, but also highly efficient for the enhancement of energy technology applications. Made of manganese and ruthenium, this single-phase oxide compound has been proven to be just as effective as more expensive catalysts like platinum and palladium. Its versatility allows for use in various applications, from low-temperature fuel cells to catalytic converters and oxygen sensors. This compound is available in both thin film and particle form, offering improved performance in both oxygen reduction and oxygen evolution reactions at a fraction of the cost. 🖇️ https://ow.ly/F5QM50RlhTE If you're interested in learning more or licensing this revolutionary technology, please reach out to our licensing teamJesús M García-Figueroa or Martin Teschl/Ryan Luebke. #CornellUniversity #technology #innovation #costeffective #efficiency

Cornell University researchers have created a highly efficient wave-mixing process to prevent light from converting back in nonlinear optically active materials. By adding dopants, this process blocks the interaction between the pump and signal, resulting in up to 65% conversion of pump energy for femtosecond pulses and up to 80% for picosecond pulses. This technology has vast uses in photonics, such as telecommunications and directed energy devices. 🖇️ https://ow.ly/WQoF50Roqve To learn more or obtain a license for this process, please contact our licensing team Jesús M García-Figueroa or Ryan Luebke. #Photonics #PhysicalSciences

Check out this recap of a fireside chat between Anna Sajer, VP at SWE Columbia River Section, and Dr. Jayshree Seth, 3M's Chief Science Advocate. They discussed Seth's "Heart of Science" series, public perception of science, personal engineering journeys, and aligning work with personal goals. Seth emphasized empathy in science advocacy, the importance of both content and context in engineering, and diverse perspectives in innovation. #3Mer https://bit.ly/4dp7RAM
