In solar cells, tweaking the tiniest of parts yields big jump in efficiency Posted: 20 Jan 2012 03:45 PM PST By tweaking the smallest of parts, engineers are hoping to dramatically increase the amount of sunlight that solar cells convert into electricity. |
T-rays technology could help develop Star Trek-style hand-held medical scanners Posted: 20 Jan 2012 03:30 PM PST Scientists have developed a new way to create Terahertz waves (T-rays) that may one day lead to biomedical detective devices similar to the 'tricorder' scanner used in Star Trek. |
Bucky balls for next-generation spintronics devices Posted: 20 Jan 2012 03:29 PM PST The beauty of an electron's spin is that it responds very rapidly to small magnetic fields. Such external magnetic fields can be used to reverse the direction of spin. In this way, information can be carried by a flow of electrons. |
