Chemical/bioengineers use adhesion to combine advantages of silicones and organic materials

Posted: 09 Jul 2013 11:35 AM PDT

Bioengineers have found a way to strongly adhere hydrogels to hydrophobic silicone substrates, an innovation that provides a valuable new tool for microscale biotechnology.

Flash memory: Silicon oxide memories transcend a hurdle

Posted: 09 Jul 2013 09:41 AM PDT

A laboratory working on next-generation "flash" memory technology has demonstrated a 1-kilobit silicon oxide memory chip with embedded diodes that keep voltage from leaking and corrupting data.

Chemistry riddle solved

Posted: 09 Jul 2013 09:40 AM PDT

Chemists have explained the structure of a non-classical carbocation. They have captured the 2-norbornyl cation as a crystal and determining beyond doubt the structure of this unusual and instable carbon compound. The 2-norbornyl cation is a non-classical carbocation, a molecule with a positively charged carbon atom that enters into five instead of three bonds with other atoms.

5-D optical memory in glass could record the last evidence of civilization

Posted: 09 Jul 2013 09:39 AM PDT

Using nanostructured glass, scientists have, for the first time, experimentally demonstrated the recording and retrieval processes of five dimensional digital data by femtosecond laser writing. The storage allows unprecedented parameters including 360 TB/disc data capacity, thermal stability up to 1000 degrees C and practically unlimited lifetime.

3-D structures built out of liquid metal

Researchers have developed three-dimensional printing technology and techniques to create free-standing structures made of liquid metal at room temperature.

Graphene on its way to conquer Silicon Valley

Posted: 09 Jul 2013 08:53 AM PDT

The remarkable material graphene promises a wide range of applications in future electronics that could complement or replace traditional silicon technology. Researchers have now paved the way for the integration of graphene into the current silicide based technology.

Space-time is not the same for everyone

Posted: 09 Jul 2013 08:53 AM PDT

Before the Big Bang, space-time as we know it did not exist. So how was it born? The process of creating normal space-time from an earlier state dominated by quantum gravity has been studied for years. Recent analyses suggest a surprising conclusion: not all elementary particles are subject to the same space-time.

Health-related website search information may be leaked to third-party tracking entities

Posted: 08 Jul 2013 02:09 PM PDT

Patients who search on free health-related websites for information related to a medical condition may have the health information they provide leaked to third party tracking entities through code on those websites, according to new research.
