A way to make wind power smoother and more efficient that exploits the inertia of a wind turbine rotor could help solve the problem of wind speed variation, according to research published in the International Journal of Power Electronics. view more (2009-01-08)
Mid Sweden University researchers set world record
When it comes to the density of connections on a chip, researchers in industrial electronics at Mid Sweden University hold the unofficial world record. Their new technique makes it possible to connect chips to an underlying substrate, such as a circuit board, with a density of 80,000 connections per square centimetre. "No one has ever managed... view more... (2004-06-04)
New AFOSR Magnetron May Help Defeat Enemy Electronics
Researchers funded by the Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR) at the University of Michigan invented a new type of magnetron that may be used to defeat enemy electronics. A magnetron is a type of vacuum tube used as the frequency source in microwave ovens, radar systems and other high-power microwave circuits. view more (2009-09-17)
New microchip design could be the key to expanding mobile phone memory
Mobile phones could one day have the memory capacity of a desktop computer thanks to a microchip that mimics the functioning of the brain, scientists report today (9 September) in the journal Science. view more (2005-09-09)

Finland to focus on getting more out of its traditional industries
Home to some of the world's largest forest products companies, Finland is committed to staying at the front of this sector and others where it is particularly strong, according to a recent study by the country's National Technology Agency, Tekes. view more (2005-03-09)
USC researchers print dense lattice of transparent nanotube transistors on flexible base
It's a clear, colorless disk about 5 inches in diameter that bends and twists like a playing card, with a lattice of more than 20,000 nanotube transistors capable of high-performance electronics printed upon it using a potentially inexpensive low-temperature process. view more (2008-12-17)
Media Invitation: A chance to speak to those involved in the latest research in communications, photonics, electronics, software and networks.
Who is carrying out work to put humans into computers? Who is behind work to put computers into humans? How much faster will our computers be in the future? What is photomedicine? These are just some of the questions that will be answered at PREP 2002. This event is a showcase for the high quality work being carried out in UK universities in... view more... (2002-04-10)

Stretchable silicon could be next wave in electronics
Researchers at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign have developed a fully stretchable form of single-crystal silicon with micron-sized, wave-like geometries that can be used to build high-performance electronic devices on rubber substrates. view more (2005-12-16)
A bright future for plastics -- robot 'skin,' flexible laptops and electric posters
With market analysts predicting a ten fold increase in the value of the organic light emitting display industry, from £1.5 billion to £15.5 billion, by 2014, it is no wonder that scientists and governments alike are keen to advance research into "plastic electronics". view more (2008-07-01)
New '1/f noise' discovery promises to improve semiconductor-based sensors
More sensitive sensors and detectors based on semiconductor electronics could result from new findings by researchers from the United States, Norway and Russia. view more (2007-05-10)
Finnish SPIN researchers at forefront of development: Spintronics can bring electronics down to size
Researchers working on the room temperature spintronics (SPIN) research project are the first in Europe to successfully produce GaMnN layers, which are ferromagnetic at room temperature. The layer properties were examined using electric, optic, x-ray and positron measurements. The Academy-funded SPIN project is comprised of four participating... view more... (2005-03-17)
Sensitive nanowire disease detectors made by Yale scientists
Yale scientists have created nanowire sensors coupled with simple microprocessor electronics that are both sensitive and specific enough to be used for point-of-care (POC) disease detection, according to a report in Nano Letters. view more (2008-10-13)
Electronic equipment gets a second life
As of next year, electronics manufacturers in Europe will be required to take back and partially recycle old equipment. Beginning in 2006, electronics must be completely lead-free. An industry conference in Berlin sheds light on how companies can meet these regulations. view more (2004-08-27)
