For more than 30 years, a record in science held firm: minus 220 degrees Fahrenheit. It defined the highest achieved temperature for any material to become superconducting — able to carry electricity with no resistance — without the need for crushing pressures. In a field known for slow, steady progress,...

FPAs are image sensors that convert infrared light into electrical signals to produce real-time thermal images and are widely used in applications such as surveillance, astronomy and industrial monitoring. Advances in cryogenic FPAs have enabled higher resolution, sensitivity and faster imaging, but they also require data rates exceeding 100 gigabits...

The Reliability Research Center of the Virtual Engineering Platform Research Division at the Korea Institute of Machinery & Materials (KIMM, President Seog-Hyeon Ryu) participated as a key research partner in the publication of the report titled Safety Review of Hydrogen-Fueled Ships conducted in collaboration with the Korean Register, the report...

The rapid expansion of LNG terminals, industrial gas facilities, hydrogen projects, and cryogenic storage systems has increased the demand for insulation solutions capable of performing reliably in extremely low-temperature environments. While many industrial insulation discussions focus on heat retention, cryogenic facilities face a different challenge: preventing unwanted heat gain from...

Energy transition is entering a new phase, defined less by how energy is generated and more by how it is stored, managed, and delivered. As energy systems become increasingly decentralized, the ability to provide reliable, high-density, long-duration storage is emerging as a foundational requirement — not an optional capability. Across...
