Tungsten disulfide (WS₂) and molybdenum disulfide (MoS₂) 2D materials applied in controlling light and could provide high efficiency. Since the invention of the world’s first laser, the ruby laser, in 1960, humans’ desire to control light has spread to various industries, including telecommunications, medicine, GPS, optical sensors and optical computers. Recently, the POSTECH research team has taken a step toward the goal of controlling light by identifying nonlinear optical phenomena that occur in heterobilayers composed of two-dimensional materials.

In the Bristol Bay Basin, 320 kilometers southwest of Anchorage, the area where the Pebble copper-gold-molybdenum-silver mine would be built. Northern Dynasty will submit its request for an appeal of the US Army Corps of Engineers' (USACE's) negative record of decision (RoD) for its Alaska's Pebble copper-gold-molybdenum-silver project in January.

The number of rare earth technology patents owned by China will exceed the US and other countries in the world by 2021. The foreign policy of the US media stated that before 1980, 99% of the world's heavy rare earth elements (REEs) were by-products produced by the United States in the process of mining titanium, zirconium and phosphate ores.
