New Chip Design Delivers Better Performance, Longer Battery Life for Cell Phones, WiFi, and Other Wireless Communications
Anyone who uses a cell phone or a WiFi laptop knows the irritation of a dead-battery surprise. view more (2006-04-20)
Researchers at UC-Santa Barbara have built the world's first mode-locked silicon evanescent laser
Researchers at UC Santa Barbara have announced they have built the world's first mode-locked silicon evanescent laser, a significant step toward combining lasers and other key optical components with the existing electronic capabilities in silicon. view more (2007-08-22)
Children with TVs in their room sleep less
Middle school children who have a television or computer in their room sleep less during the school year, watch more TV, play more computer games and surf the net more than their peers who don't. view more (2008-09-03)
Virtual reality and computer technology improve stroke rehabilitation
Israeli hospitals have recently started to use virtual reality therapy for stroke patients. One commonly used program has the patient watch his virtual image on a screen. view more (2008-03-11)
New graphene transistor promises life after death of silicon chip
Researchers have used the world's thinnest material to create the world's smallest transistor - a breakthrough that could spark the development of a new type of super-fast computer chip. view more (2007-03-01)
High-speed material for data transfer
It doesn’t add up: error-free data rapidly transmitted thousands of kilometers, but within the computer - a bottleneck. “Circuit boards and connectors are the limiting factor in computer processing speeds,” explains Dr. Michael Popall of the Fraunhofer Institute for Silicate Research ISC in Würzburg. With standard... view more... (2002-11-14)
New microchip technology for medical imaging biomarkers of disease
A collaboration between scientists at UCLA, Caltech, Stanford, Siemens and Fluidigm have developed a new technology using integrated microfluidics chips for simplifying, lowering the cost and diversifying the types of molecules used to image the biology of disease with the medical imaging technology, Positron Emission Tomography (PET). view more (2005-12-16)
NTU & SIMTech announce the first antenna-in-package solution for single-chip 60-GHz radio
Researchers at Nanyang Technology University (NTU) and Singapore Institute of Manufacturing Technology (SIMTech) have successfully developed the first Antenna-in-Package (AiP) solution in LTCC (low-temperature co-fired ceramic) technology for single-chip 60-GHz radio. view more (2008-10-22)
Nose-on-a-chip Aims To Mimic The Real Thing
An ambitious project is underway to build the world's smallest electronic nose. If the project succeeds, it is expected that the technology would have many potential applications in areas such as environmental monitoring, healthcare and food safety. The aim is to combine the odour sensors together with the signal processing components on to a... view more... (2002-03-04)
Penn Researchers Take a Big Step Forward in Making Smaller Circuits
Physicists at the University of Pennsylvania have overcome a major hurdle in the race to create nanotube-based electronics. view more (2005-08-01)
Feeling anxious? Talk to a computer
A computer can effectively treat people with anxiety problems. view more (1999-03-26)
Magnetic computer sensors may help study biomolecules
Magnetic switches like those in computers also might be used to manipulate individual strands of DNA for high-speed applications such as gene sequencing, experiments at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) suggest. view more (2007-05-11)
Scientists build 'magnetic semiconductors' one atom at a time
In a stride that could hasten the development of computer chips that both calculate and store data, a team of Princeton scientists has turned semiconductors into magnets by the precise placement of metal atoms within a material from which chips are made. view more (2006-07-28)
Delft University of Technology rotates electron spin with electric field
Researchers at the Delft University of Technology's Kavli Institute of Nanoscience and the Foundation for Fundamental Research on Matter (FOM) have succeeded in controlling the spin of a single electron merely by using electric fields. view more (2007-11-02)
Rensselaer student invents alternative to silicon chip
Even before Weixiao Huang received his doctorate from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, his new transistor captured the attention of some of the biggest American and Japanese automobile companies. view more (2008-05-14)
Beating the back-up blues
That sinking feeling when your hard disk starts screeching and you haven't backed up your holiday photos is a step closer to becoming a thing of the past thanks to research into a new kind of computer memory. view more (2009-04-06)
The fight for the best quantum bit (qubit)
Our results give us, for the first time, the possibility to understand the interaction between just two electrons placed next to each other in a carbon nanotube. view more (2008-06-25)
Facial models allow "band-efficient" video communication
Is it possible to combine a three-dimensional wire model of a face with real pictures of the same face? And is it possible to get the computer that is forming the new image to follow the face even when the person in question makes sudden movements or partially covers her face with her hand? These are a couple of the research questions for the... view more... (2002-02-11)
Fishing biomolecules
Rapid substance identification is an indispensable tool for laboratories and process monitoring. An optical biochip developed as part of the EU-funded project BIOMIC is capable of simultaneously measuring the concentrations of eight different proteins or DNA fragments. view more (2004-03-18)
