LIS Technologies' New $6.2M Oak Ridge Building Is The Missing Link In Nano's Fuel-To-Reactor Stack
LIS Technologies just bought the building that makes the Nano Nuclear vertical-integration story look more like a fuel cycle, instead of a slide deck.
The check for $6.2 million purchased K-1580, a 37,803-square-foot, three-story, newly renovated facility at 150 Americus Way on the historic K-25 Enrichment Site of East Tennessee's Technology Park Heritage Center in Oak Ridge, best known as the birth place of the Manhattan Project. It sits next to LIST's leased K-1330 test-demonstration hall and complements the 206-acre “LIST Island” parcel where the company plans a $1.4 billion commercial laser-enrichment plant.
Jay Yu, Executive Chairman and CEO of LIST as well as Founder and Chairman of the publicly traded Nano Nuclear Energy, called Oak Ridge "the Silicon Valley of Nuclear." For once the geography matches the org chart.
The stack Nano and LIST have been drawing looks like ...

NANO Nuclear Expands Air Force Footprint With Second AFWERX Award
NANO Nuclear Energy has been selected for a new AFWERX Small Business Innovation Research Phase I award, giving the company another opportunity to advance its KRONOS MMR Energy System with the Department of the Air Force.
The new Phase I award is framed as a broad research and development agreement. NANO said the contract is focused on using KRONOS to “address the most pressing challenges in the DAF [Department of the Air Force].”
The distinction between this award and NANO's previous Air Force contract is worth noting.
Last year's roughly $1.25 million Direct-to-Phase II award was tied to a specific objective: studying the feasibility of deploying a KRONOS MMR at Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling in Washington, DC. That work examines the base's energy requirements, grid vulnerabilities, siting options, environmental considerations and regulatory pathways.
Rather than evaluating a reactor for one predetermined location, the ...

NANO Nuclear And Fortil Advance Critical KRONOS Fuel System
NANO Nuclear Energy has pushed another critical piece of its KRONOS MMR program toward preliminary design, this time with French engineering group Fortil.
If there's a corner of the French industrial sector that America should be comfortable leaning into, their nuclear segment is arguably the safest bet. Their 57-reactor fleet, accounting for 70% of the country's electricity generation, is only surpassed by the US and Chinese commercial fleets.
The companies said conceptual design work is nearly complete on the reactor's Fuel Handling & Storage System, which will manage the safe handling, storage and movement of nuclear fuel throughout operations. The work includes defining subsystem interfaces, evaluating engineering solutions and producing documentation needed for the next design stage.
It's not the most glamorous part of a reactor, but it's the sort of picks-and-shovels engineering that separates a reactor rendering from an o...

Albany NanoTech Complex acquires ASML High NA EUV tools for chip research (Digitimes)
|
|
|
Parts of ASML's next-generation high numerical aperture (High NA) extreme ultraviolet (EUV) machine have arrived in New York state, where they will be used for chipmaking R&D. State officials tout this as an important step in establishing a US-based research center for cutting-edge lithography as chip miniaturization begins to reach the limits of Moore's Law....

Exclusive: Geckos bets on AI materials beyond nano copper powders and CPO waveguides (Digitimes)
|
|
|
As generative AI drives rapid growth in high-performance computing (HPC) demand, the semiconductor industry is shifting from process-node competition to materials competition. Geckos chairman Raymond Shen said that once chip manufacturing advances to 2nm and beyond, improvements in AI computing power are no longer just a chip-design issue, but are increasingly constrained by materials' heat dissipation and high-frequency signal transmission capabilities....
