Discovery is great, manufacturing is better. Still waiting on my graphene based cpu to be made.

I think I understood "rare" but that's about it

Why do we need an even more powerful MRI machine?

"MRI machines are currently limited to magnet fields of 1 to 3 Tesla."- Then how about that 10.5T MRI scanner they set up in 2013?
squillis
Problem is, if you have only 3 layers, couldn't the electron tunnel outside of the insulation. I'm no expert on quantum mechanics so curious
PictureArchiver
I want quantum computers that are so robust that when I hit them with a hammer, computing just goes on as per usual.
limbodog
Ah, graphene. It can do anything except leave the lab.
alteriron
I'm sure I read on to find it's not magic, not rare, not at all magnet proof and barely superconductor I can smell it
poopoobrain
I'm working with someone on a machine that can detect cancer at 100 cells instead of a billion. and for 1% the radiation of a pet scan.

Have they created an aquarium filter that doesn't need to be cleaned out twice a month?

my best friend studies micro-magnetism, I’m sure there’s a better name for it, but it’s fucking amazing some of the things he told me

Trilayer Graphene. Antivaxxers add 2B + 2B and get 5G.

Astroneer did it first.

I can’t wait to never hear about this again

Probably because you won't be working with it?

Same as mRNA vaccines taking years to develop then covid streamlined a lot of the bullshit steps.

I thought this meme kinda niche but I was completely wrong. Someone's always posting something related to magnets. Lol
blueipDriver
I love this every time I see it
DammitCarlYouCantEvenSee
"robust quantum computer" so it doesn't break if you drop it?
phobosorbust
Current ones break if you look at them too hard or get them warmer than deep space, so the bar for improvement is low.
OriginalSyn
Well current quantum computers look like fragile steampunk chandeliers
GiantSquanchy
I could be wrong, but I think the magic angle also alows for superconduction without liquid nitrogen, meaning more operating environments.
tigersRcool
I have no idea what this means but it sounds important.
ElectricGears
Super conducting magnets are (currently) limited in strength because a strong enough field breaks down the superconducting properties.
Mewmus
from what i understand a superconductor is a material that can have electricity go through it with zero resistence
Kaeldiar
It's a good magnet. Good magnets are expensive (and necessary for MRI). This good magnet is not as expensive
DanielleHL
If a MRI machine can be made quieter, I’d be happy.
FirstAidPoetry
I kinda liked it, made me feel like I was nearby a techno club. Fell asleep.
DanielleHL
I couldn’t fall asleep the first time, but the 4th time I dozed. I get sedated as of last year.
Midknight129
They can be made quieter.... Oh, you meant while they're running?
RetroBlast
Graphene is so amazing, anti-vaxxers are now saying the covid vaccine is 90% graphene oxide...you know, to help with signal transmission...
GiantSquanchy
My 5g signal has never been stronger
DigiT00l
One of the guys who developed it also does some fun science, the only person to have won both a Nobel and an IG Nobel prize
DigiT00l
He also worked on like making actual Spider Man like web fluid and made a frog fly for science

where the hell do they get their bullshit from I wonder ?

would have been nice if they actually listed all 12
RetroBlast
There are other articles that do - google "anti-vax 12" and you should find a full list.

The things that really enhance our technology are material sciences. Make it stronger, lighter, more energy dense... things take off.
Canigetbannedagain
Put a bigger rocket on it and anything will take off.
MoistProfessor
Material science is awesome!! I majored in physics and underground I think I messed up because material science is so much more interesting!
strangelyaddicting
This is why I'm investing in several different graphene companies. That shit is going to revolutionize a LOT of industries...
ItsaMeFranman
Material scientist here. It's super fun too!
AndersCalrissian
Like fullerene smart materials
ATerribleArtist
Agreed. Take for example the fact that nobody has coke-bottle glasses anymore. That was the only option, not a style of choice.
SanchoPliskin
ihavenoideahowthisworks
Like the first airplane, right?
MushroomFiend
Harder, better, faster, stronger.
Leethesuperflea
Literally take off...like new space planes and spaceships
MenloPart
Arizona State's Material Science program recruited me. I attended a presentation and enjoyed it. However I went to sign up too late and
MenloPart
All that was available was a one-credit survey. I succumbed to peer pressure and signed up for computer classes, which I dropped. Then I

pursued teaching and ended up graduating in Spanish. I don't know that I was materials science material, but maybe had I just signed up

earlier I wouldn't be living with my mother.

AndersCalrissian
Hosers. Always upvote Bob n Doug ??
JudgementalMan
Computation and material science are complementary in that regard. I doubt you'd get far with nanomaterials without computer models.
Mazena
Except things get patented and progress halts again.
AndersCalrissian
Until the patent expires though?
reload2456
Oh so in like 20 years other people can use their now (almost always) very badly obsolete discovery.
Omnisom
Surely somebody can buy them, what if we passed a law mandating putting pattents on the open market to ensure profit and fairness alike?
Beelsebooob
Okay, I'll put my patent on the open market for $100000000000000000000000000000.
DeSupotsu
That, and geometry. Thinking about going back to school to study Mat Sci
Mimsey
My recollection of MatSci material was that geometry was 50% of it. Every semiconductor class I took started with lattice structures.
DeSupotsu
Oh man don’t say that, Geometry gets me hot n bothered in all sorts of ways….
Insomnia297
From personal experience I would recommend studying nanoscience, specifically nanomaterials & materials science. That shit is awesome
DeSupotsu
At the college I attended there was a nanotech building I loved to sit in. All the labs had walls of this orange glass. Watched for hours 1/
DeSupotsu
Also, not to poke, but what “personal experience” are you speaking from? Do you have experience in the field or ??
Insomnia297
The orange glass is probably related to photosensitive materials for semiconductors. I Went to school for it. I switched career paths, tho
Wyattcon11
If you do Mat Sci, I'd recommend looking at metallurgy, composites, and additive mfg. I minored in mat Sci&Eng, now doing a masters in it.
DeSupotsu
Very interesting! Thank you for the suggestion!
cheesedogs
Don't ignore cost, supply, and manufacturing, as it pertains to the actual impact of new technology

DeSupotsu
Yikes, thanks for the food for thought. I currently work in engineering. Hoping that it would be smoother for me.
FutureFabricator
Can confirm, almost 2 years after graduation with Material Science and Engineering degree and I ended up being an industrial engineer 1/2
DeSupotsu
Haha that’s what I’m doing right now as well!
FutureFabricator
2/2 instead. If you are going MatSci, I would recommend getting through a masters/PhD as well. Many positions require it.

I read a paper on this a while back, 'Harder, better, faster, stronger' by D. Punk et al.

Ah yes. these are the good science squiggly lines. you can tell by the way they are orange, the known color of science.

As a lover of orange, I approve this message.

Orange is the color of Top Secret. There may be an overlap.

Vinstradamus
If my memory is correct, orange also serves as the color example for "what not to do".
MrJackedBroccoli
That is only if the squiggly organe is accompanied by smoke.
skipsh2
Blue is also good. Red is bad.
CaptainFrog
We can all agree there.
CaptainFrog
Unless of course, the person disagreeing is bad.
CaptainFrog
Or colorblind.
biom4st3r
Orange science is very bad in chemistry. The worst in fact
shmoogeeoogee
Science is blue! Production is orange.
Bristlecone42
Food is green, culture is purple, faith is white
TheRealPumpkinQueen
Science is blue, soup is round, pain is red, sleepy limbs are static
lJacksInTheBoxl
Seize the means of orange?
shmoogeeoogee
Like clockwork, baby
onlyhalfghost
science is only blue while you're working on fluid handling, after that you should really get on purple
Bristlecone42
Purple is culture.
onlyhalfghost
purple is production science, culture is something the engineer isn't concerned with
Bristlecone42
I think we’re playing different strategy games.
