If that is true, you should have no issues providing some follow up articles on the device. I've done some quick looking, and the only thing I see is the same article repeated.
Why no news? Because for anything coming out of academia, you need to pump the brakes. There is a lot of really cool stuff that gets "developed" and will never see commercialization because academia is about "is it possible" not "is it commercially viable." Does this article make it sound cool? Yes. Does that mean anything in the business world? Lol, no. If you can produce more information on this substance, I'd be happy to read over it. Otherwise, this is just a fluff article with no real actionable substance.
