Every AI query warms a chip somewhere, and the chips that run them are getting hotter. A University of Waterloo team now says a single drop of boiling coolant, placed exactly where a processor spikes, could keep data centre hardware cooler without paying for expensive fluid across the whole tank.
On November 10, 2026, the university released results of a hybrid immersion cooling concept from its engineering faculty, published in the Journal of Colloid and Interface Science. In lab tests, on...

Rubber That Can Use Energy from body movements to Generate Power
Power-generating rubber material could harness walking and other movement to charge electronic devices.
Researchers at Princeton University have recently invented a new energy-harvesting rubber material composed of ceramic nanoribbons that could harvest energy from your breathing and walking.
This material is composed of ceramic nanoribbons embedded onto silicone rubber sheets which generates electricity when flexed and is highly efficient at converting mechanical energy to electrical ener...
