Researchers at NUST MISIS have discovered the most effective method of processing an aluminum alloy, which allows the material to become three times stronger while maintaining optimal hardness and ductility. In the future, this approach could enable manufacturers to eliminate costly alloying additives, producing lightweight and durable components for microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) that retain their properties through multiple work cycles.
Russian scientists have introduced an ultra-sensitive detector capable of detecting individual photons with an efficiency of up to 98%. This development could serve as a foundation for the advancement of quantum computing, secure data transmission, and applications in astronomy and biomedical diagnostics.
The College of Technologies of NUST MISIS has signed a cooperation agreement with the School of Materials and Energy at the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China (UESTC). The two universities plan to strengthen their partnership, establish a joint laboratory or research center, and launch a master’s program in Advanced Materials Science.
Russian scientists have discovered that the interaction of titanium, aluminum, and nitrogen-based materials with molten copper results in the formation of strong and wear-resistant composites. The findings will help create new metal-ceramic materials for use in electrical engineering, aviation, and mechanical engineering.
The decision to launch scientific and technical cooperation was made during the visit of a delegation led by Lieutenant General Vu Ngoc Thiem, Chairman of the Committee for Ciphers under the Government of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam, and Nguyen Van Ngoc, Director of Hong Ngoc Integrated Services — JSC “RAISE”.
