Revolutionary Technique Transforms Sustainable Material Synthesis

Rice University's flash-within-flash Joule heating method drastically cuts production time, energy use, and emissions.

The new FWF method enables gram-scale production of diverse compounds in seconds.
Energy, water consumption, and greenhouse gas emissions are reduced by over 50%.
FWF overcomes conductivity limitations, allowing synthesis of more than 20 unique materials.
The technique is ideal for next-generation semiconductor materials like MoSe2 and tungsten diselenide.
FWF's scalability and purity make it a game-changer for industries such as aerospace and electronics.
