You can read that comment differently; Brexit will have no negative...Fair comment...Brexit-leaving the EU- will have no negative...

However, the goings on today, now incorporated in language as 'Brexit'
is delaying progress; it is delaying investments, it is delaying decisions, it is delaying...

looks good to me.

"Aecom going to plan, no dramas but covered by nda’s and multiparty agreements. Release requires mutual approval that is all.I am totally comfortable and delighted with progress"

They probably have two contracts. Whatever happens tomorrow, one will get signed!

[davemac3] 28/3/2019 11:47

pshevlin, why didn't you post NR's reply to your Tweet about Brexit delays?

[sandbag] 28/3/2019 11:27

pshevlin,

Sorry! I've just checked his profile and now filtered him.

[sandbag] 28/3/2019 11:25

"upon successful completion of final tests" So no RNS = unsuccessful completion"

Not necessarily. No RNS could mean tests still ongoing. You're starting to sound like a Troll. Finger hovering over the filter button here.

Good to read that that Neil is "totally comfortable and delighted with progress" made with AECOM.

[pshevlin] 28/3/2019 11:25

Please don't repeat Chester et al posts as those who are sensible enough to filter the idiots do NOT wish to see them.

[wester1] 28/3/2019 11:14

Chester, if the market is forward thinking it must have priced that in.

....just in time to fill the new ISA’s up

"Watch it drop dramatically on Monday if there is no substance to any RNS"

If it does it won't matter a jot to us investors. We aim to buy low and sell high. You sell on Monday if you wish. We'll just wait for the (possibly huge) rewards.

Spike - I seem to recall that NR did previously refer to one particular Aecom item as involving NDA signed by three parties - Aecom, Versarien, and an Aecom subcontractor.

Bearing in mind that much of Aecom's work is consultancy/design/project management, I imagine many of the items that Versarien and they are involved with will be items made by various others to Aecom's specification.

[pshevlin] 28/3/2019 10:35

No problem.

[ellissj] 28/3/2019 10:30

Quite possibly spike, Looks to be an ongoing relationship at the very least and deep (friends). And as i said the other day re d kerrs aecom hosting - i'm taking a cue from what geic represents ! Looks positive to me. Aimo. Best ellis

[woodpeckers] 28/3/2019 10:28

Good point Spike, there's no wonder it's taking a while to tie up!

[woodpeckers] 28/3/2019 10:27

Sorry Peter, didn't mean to steal your thunder, well done for asking the Q.

[spike_1] 28/3/2019 10:21

Re Neill's tweet: Aecom going to plan, no dramas but covered by nda’s and multiparty agreements.

So - we're not talking one project on the go with Aecom but many, and presumably the RNS's also seem to require the approval not only of Aecom, but Aecom's customers, but I could be wrong on that.

Best wishes - Spike

[ellissj] 28/3/2019 10:15

Agreed, likewise re aircraft part. Yet we know vrs in the game - david kerr over for the collins presentation ! Aimo. Best ellis.

[chillpill] 28/3/2019 10:11

AECOM will want to maintain a competitive advantage over their rivals so will want as little press prior to the commercial launch as possible.

[ellissj] 28/3/2019 09:58

Good update. Thx all. Headwinds that's all. Neill 'Delighted with progress' - Chimes well with this tweet from david kerr. Keep on keeping on neill and co :) aimo. Best ellis

David Kerr @DFK007

"Another day out @UoMGraphene with our friends from AECOM."

Thx for posting it Woody. Was going to do it myself.

If you use a smartphone, laptop, or tablet, then you benefit from research in photonics, the study of light. At the University of Delaware, a team led by Tingyi Gu, an assistant professor of electrical and computer engineering, is developing cutting-edge technology for photonics devices that could enable faster communications between devices and thus, the people who use them.





The research group recently engineered a silicon-graphene device that can transmit radiofrequency waves in less than a picosecond at a sub-terahertz bandwidth—that's a lot of information, fast. Their work is described in a new paper published in the journal ACS Applied Electronic Materials.

"In this work, we explored the bandwidth limitation of the graphene-integrated silicon photonics for future optoelectronic applications," said graduate student Dun Mao, the first author of the paper.

Silicon is a naturally occurring, plentiful material commonly used as a semiconductor in electronic devices. However, researchers have exhausted the potential of devices with semiconductors made of silicon only. These devices are limited by silicon's carrier mobility, the speed at which a charge moves through the material, and indirect bandgap, which limits its ability to release and absorb light.

Now, Gu's team is combining silicon with a material with more favorable properties, the 2-D material graphene. 2-D materials get their name because they are just a single layer of atoms. Compared to silicon, graphene has better carrier mobility and direct bandgap and allows for faster electron transmission and better electrical and optical properties. By combining silicon with graphene, scientists may be able to continue utilize technologies that are already used with silicon devices—they would just work faster with the silicon-graphene combination.
