A new method for exploring the secrets of Mother Nature's frustrations has been developed by a team of physicists lead by Penn State University professors Peter Schiffer, Vincent Crespi, and Nitin Samarth. The resear...
An MIT researcher's atom-by-atom simulation of cracks forming and spreading may help explain how materials fail in nanoscale devices, airplanes and even in the Earth itself during a quake. This work, which could impa...
Imagine you are standing, John Wayne style, on the backs of two runaway horses pulling a stagecoach. You try to bring the horses to a stop but instead the harnesses break, the horses separate, and an unlucky passenger ge...
An electrical engineer at the University of Texas at Austin has made a laser light blink while passing through a miniaturized silicon chip, a major step toward developing commercially viable optical interconnects for hig...
IBM, Sony Corporation and Toshiba have announced they have begun a new, five year phase of their joint technology development alliance.
As part of this broad semiconductor research and development alliance, the three...
Imagine a computer that doesn't lose data even in a sudden power outage, or a coin-sized hard drive that could store 100 or more movies.
Magnetic random-access memory, or MRAM, could make these possible, and woul...
Plants are able, using organic substances, to achieve effects that we otherwise mostly know only from technical materials. One example of this is the carnivorous pitcher plant, as researchers from the Max Planck Institut...
Coloured transparent organic-inorganic hybrid coatings
Interior design is set to utilise a new era in coloured materials if a team of researchers from Mexico have their way. The researchers have developed hard, coloured...
Fabrication of nanometer scale patterns with polymer Langmuir-Blodgett films
Modern electronics demand constant improvements in power and speed. Consequently, the circuitry becomes increasingly complex with a trend to...
Bell Labs, the research and development arm of Lucent Technologies, has announced it has been awarded a Technical GRAMMY® Award by The Recording Academy® for its outstanding technical contributions to the recordi...
