Georgia Tech team develops simple, low-cost process for oxide nanowires; superior separators for Li-ion batteries

Green Car Congress

Researchers at Georgia Tech have developed a simple technique for producing oxide nanowires directly from bulk materials under ambient conditions without the use of catalysts or any external stimuli. This technique could open the door for a range of synthesis opportunities to produce low-cost 1D nanomaterials in large quantities.

DNA Data Drives Point Toward Exabyte Scale

Cars That Think

But for DNA to make a difference in the storage problem, it needs to scale up, while the cost must come down. New research led by the Georgia Tech Research Institute (GTRI) aims to achieve both. Electrochemistry has been used this way before, but what’s new is trying to add a layer of electrical control.

Building a Zero Trust Security Model for Autonomous Systems

Cars That Think

Just last year, a half dozen precisely targeted malicious drones managed to slow oil production in Saudi Arabia for days, and more recently, several low-cost drones caused significant damage to oil tankers in the UAE. That is one of the reasons ATRC’s ASPIRE chose to focus on autonomous swarm coordination as part of its.
