High-tech Industry Icon to Receive Science Society Medal
SCI (Society of Chemical Industry) has named Dr Gordon E. Moore, Chairman Emeritus of Intel Corporation, as winner of the 2004 Perkin Medal. Moore will receive the award at the 98th annual Perkin Medal Award Dinner on September 14 in Philadelphia, USA. view more (2004-09-13)
£4M awarded for research in Integrated Electronics
The University of Surrey's Integrated Electronics research programme is one of only eight research teams in the UK to receive one of the new Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) Portfolio Partnership Awards being announced at the EPSRC's annual conference in London on Wednesday 3 April 2003. The University of Surrey (UniS)... view more... (2003-03-25)
NRL scientists demonstrate efficient electrical spin injection into silicon
Scientists at the Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) have efficiently injected a current of spin-polarized electrons from a ferromagnetic metal contact into silicon, producing a large electron spin polarization in the silicon. view more (2007-07-17)
UF engineer develops tiny, easily mass-produced motion sensor
A University of Florida engineer is the latest researcher to design a tiny, easy-to-manufacture motion sensor, a development that could help popularize the sensors as standard equipment in personal electronics, medical devices and other applications. view more (2006-02-10)
Scientists help develop first single molecule transistor
Dr Werner Hofer, from the University's Surface Science Research Centre, is one of an international team of scientists who have created a prototype that demonstrates a single charged atom on a silicon surface can regulate the conductivity of a nearby molecule. view more (2005-06-07)
Zinc oxide gives green shine to new photoconductors
Photodetectors -- devices found in cell phones, digital cameras and other consumer gadgets that utilize photoconducting materials -- are a green technology in performance (converting light into electricity), but the manufacture of very powerful photodetectors needs to be improved before they can qualify for solid green status. view more (2009-03-19)
A First in Integrated Nanowire Sensor Circuitry
Scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and the University of California at Berkeley have created the world's first all-integrated sensor circuit based on nanowire arrays, combining light sensors and electronics made of different crystalline materials. Their method can be used to reproduce numerous such... view more... (2008-08-05)
Toward plastic spin transistors
University of Utah physicists successfully controlled an electrical current using the "spin" within electrons - a step toward building an organic "spin transistor": a plastic semiconductor switch for future ultrafast computers and electronics. view more (2008-08-18)
Carbon molecule with a charge could be tomorrow's semiconductor
Virginia Tech chemistry Professor Harry Dorn has developed a new area of fullerene chemistry that may be the backbone for development of molecular semiconductors and quantum computing applications. view more (2008-09-09)
Nanotubes grown straight in large numbers
Duke University chemists have found a way to grow long, straight cylinders only a few atoms thick in very large numbers, removing a major roadblock in the pursuit of nano-scale electronics. view more (2008-04-24)
5.1 Surround Sound for FM HD Radio at NAB 2005
Fraunhofer IIS, Telos, Omnia, Axia, Broadcast Electronics and Bose participate in world-premiere live demon-stration of non-matrixed 5.1 Surround Sound for FM HD Radio. view more (2005-04-13)
Photonic Crystals in 3-D - The Physics Congress 2003
Telecoms systems contain an awkward mixture of optics and electronics. A purely optical system would permit the very high data rates needed by the Internet, but at the moment the switching and routing, as well as the "last mile" to the customer, still depend on slower electronic components. Speaking at the Institute of Physics Congress... view more... (2003-03-17)
Superconducting sensor helps detecting gravitation waves
To be able to detect gravitation waves in space, physicist have to measure truly minimal displacements: ten billion times smaller than the size of an atom. An improved superconducting sensor is a suitable candidate for this job, Martin Podt of the University of Twente now states in his PhD thesis. He has improved the sensitivity of a so-called... view more... (2003-01-15)
Nanotubes act as 'thermal Velcro' to reduce computer-chip heating
Engineers have created carpets made of tiny cylinders called carbon nanotubes to enhance the flow of heat at a critical point where computer chips connect to cooling devices called heat sinks, promising to help keep future chips from overheating. view more (2006-05-03)
MIT replaces chrome coatings with safer metal alloys
Ever since the 1940s, chrome has been used to add a protective coating and shiny luster to a wide range of metal products, from bathroom fixtures to car bumpers. view more (2009-05-21)
Electrical circuit runs entirely off power in trees
You've heard about flower power. What about tree power? It turns out that it's there, in small but measurable quantities. There's enough power in trees for University of Washington researchers to run an electronic circuit. view more (2009-09-09)
Cornell researchers develop virus-size 'nanolamps' that could aid use of flexible electronic devices as sensors
To help light up the nanoworld, a Cornell interdisciplinary team of researchers has produced microscopic "nanolamps" — light-emitting nanofibers about the size of a virus or the tiniest of bacteria. view more (2007-04-12)
Stand Up And Walk
Results of a new electronic treatment for seriously paralysed people will be demonstrated at a press facility, at 13.00 local time on 20th March, in the Charlemagne Building, Rue de la Loi, Brussels. view more (2000-03-17)
Researchers develop foundation for circuitry and devices based on graphite
Graphite, the material that gives pencils their marking ability, could be the basis for a new class of nanometer-scale electronic devices that have the attractive properties of carbon nanotubes - but could be produced using established microelectronics manufacturing techniques. view more (2006-03-15)
Graphene used to create world's smallest transistor
Researchers have used the world's thinnest material to create the world's smallest transistor, one atom thick and ten atoms wide. view more (2008-04-18)
