  Researchers created the ability to mass-produce nanomaterial called "MXene". 


The nanomaterial "MXene" is the material that turns harder when somebody or something presses it. The "MXene" is one of the examples of 2D "molecular structures". When somebody talks about the 2D nanomaterial, normally people talk about the graphene, an atom layer of carbon. 

The "molecular 2D" structures mean that the material is one layer of molecules like lipids. Those lipide molecules are forming soap, and sometimes those lipids are used as tweezers in nanotechnology. But if engineers will cover the entire layer using one lipide layer that material will get new abilities. The thing that makes the nanomaterial interesting is its form. When somebody tries to push one layer-lipids that are in the same way together the lipide's "feet" are pushing against each other.

The research also highlighted MXene’s diverse applications based on the Hall scattering factor. Credit: Korea Institute of Science and Technology."

There is one thing that can revolutionize the armor and space technology. Those things are the "nanopyramids" the molecules that are forming a pyramid-shaped structure. If those pyramids are overlapping against each other. That thing makes it impossible to push anything through them if that material is created by using nanodiamonds. 

In some other versions, the material's molecule structure looks like a prism or gable roof. If two "roofs " are against each other overlapping. That thing makes material also very hard to penetrate because the structure turns harder when somebody pushes it. 

The nanotechnology is a tool that makes the new types of materials possible. Those nanomaterials can make the fundamental applications in civil and military products possible. The nanomaterial called "MXene" is one of the promising things for new types of armor. The nanomaterial's structure that you see in the image is like small "pyramids". 

When something hits or presses that material, the molecule's feet are pressing against each other. And that thing makes it hard to press that structure together. So the "MXene" is the material that turns harder when something presses it. That nanomaterial looks like soap lipids. When we think possibility of covering large surfaces by using one molecule layer of those lipids, that thing makes it possible to create a new type of surface, that can turn hard and stand against hard strikes.

Plasmonic waves can make new waves in quantum technology.

"LSU researchers have made a significant discovery related to the fundamental properties and behavior of plasmonic waves, which can lead ot the development of more sensitive and robust quantum technologies. Credit: LSU" (ScitechDaily, Plasmonics Breakthrough Unleashes New Era of Quantum Technologies) Plasmonic waves in the quantum gas are the next-generation tools. The plasmonic wave is quite similar to radio waves. Or, rather say it, a combination of acoustic waves and electromagnetic waves. Quantum gas is an atom group. In those atom groups, temperature and pressure are extremely low.  The distance of atoms is long. And when an electromagnetic system can pump energy to those atoms. But the thing in quantum gas is that the atoms also make physical movements like soundwaves. It's possible. To create quantum gas using monoatomic ions like ionized noble gas. In those systems, positive (or negative) atoms push each other away.  When the box is filled with quantum gas and som...

What is the difference between TR-3A and TR-3B? And are those planes real?

What is the difference between TR-3A and TR-3B? And are those planes real? Is TR-3B (0) "Black Triangle UFO" or is it only the piece of paper?  The study project, what is used to create advanced ideas for use of the nuclear-powered aircraft. Or is it the study project or black budget aircraft, where lost 2,3 trillion dollars (1)of the stealth bomber were gone. In this text is things, that might seem very difficult to accept, and when we are thinking about things like doubling the object or making it smaller by using huge layers of energy, nothing denies to test those things. But were those tests successful, there is no data about that in public Internet, so we must say that things like doubling the human or aircraft can be tested, but the results can be unknown.  But in the source two is the tale, what seems like impossible, those men, who got Noble Prize put at first time one atom to the box, and hit it with photon one photon in the box and hit it with t...

The interesting coincidence between USS Sea Shadow (1982) and CSS Virginia (1862)

Image I The interesting coincidence between  USS Sea Shadow (1982) and CSS Virginia (1862) Far away from its time is the thing, that you might notice when you see those two images. The upper one (Image I) is portraying the modern naval USS Sea Shadow (IX-529)(1) experimental Stealth ship, which was created by Lockheed-Martin, and the image below (Image II) is portraying the CSS Virginia (2), the ironclad from the Civil War Era. The thing why the hull of the CSS Virginia, what is ironclad from 1862 is that the ammunition of the cannons would not transfer their impact energy to the hull of the ship. And the reason why Sea Shadows hull has this form is that it should point the radar echo away from the hull.  The thing that I must say that CSS Virginia is far ahead its time because that structure is effective against the explosive ammunition, and the slanting armor of tanks like T-34 and Sherman have made them effective. But for some reason, the use of slanting ...
