TS-070330 — The Need The prohibitive cost of consumer-grade 3D metal printers (e.g. AOMetal’s desktop device starting at $59,000 USD), places them far beyond the reach of most hobbyists, educators, and researchers. Thus, there is a significant need for an affordable, energy-efficient solution that enables…

TS-070308 — The Need Current lithium iron phosphate (LFP) cathode materials suffer from poor electronic conductivity and limited lithium-ion diffusion, especially under high-rate charging conditions. These limitations hinder the performance of lithium-ion batteries (LiBs) in demanding applications such as elect…

TS-070307 — The Need The rapid growth of electric vehicles and portable electronics demands lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) that support fast charging without compromising cycle life or safety. Silicon anodes offer high theoretical capacity but suffer from severe volume expansion during cycling, leading to mechani…

TS-069805 — The Need Welding or bonding steel to aluminum is challenging due to the formation of brittle Fe-Al intermetallic compounds, which weaken the joints. Current methods require alternative, costly joining processes. There is a critical need for a solution that allows the use of traditional welding tech…

TS-069524 — The Need Global water scarcity is a critical issue, with many regions lacking access to clean and reliable water sources. Traditional water harvesting methods are often energy-intensive and inefficient. There is a pressing need for innovative, sustainable, and energy-efficient technologies to extra…

TS-067792 — A software tool for optimizing the manufacturing process for metal alloys.

TS-065429 — Iron is the main and most detrimental impurity in most industrial casting aluminum alloys. Iron content in aluminum alloys is limited, up to 0.1 weight% in some alloys.

TS-064827 — The Need: As the second quantum revolution progresses, the demand for robust quantum materials intensifies, particularly in the realm of quantum computation and information processing. Addressing the challenges of coherence and stability in qubits is crucial for advancing quantum technology towards …

TS-063911 — Porosity formation during the solidification of aluminum-based alloys, induced by hydrogen gas and alloy shrinkage, presents a significant challenge for industries relying on high-performance solidification products such as castings, welds, and additively manufactured components. This issue advers…
