Leti, a leading global research center committed to creating and commercializing innovation in micro- and nanotechnologies, today presented results at the SOI Industry Consortium workshop in Leuven, Belgium, that prove SOI-based planar CMOS meets requirements for low-power, 22nm node devices, offering a practical route to further feature shrink and enabling a significant jump for “green” products.
A multi-million pound engineering research project is using advanced thinking to revolutionise the welding industry – and offering the prospect of saving lives.
From detailed assessments of electronic structure, researchers at the University at Buffalo, Cornell University, Stony Brook University and Moscow State University discovered that unexpected hydrides violating standard valence rules, such as LiH6 and LiH8, become stable metals at a pressure approximately one quarter of that required to metalize pure hydrogen itself; findings that were published in an October 5, 2009 early edition of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
To functionalize graphene with gold -- thus controlling its electronics properties -- engineers at Kansas State University embedded gold on graphene. Rather than distributing itself evenly over graphene, the gold formed islands on the sheets' surfaces. They named these islands snowflake-shaped gold nanostars.
Modern tissue engineering developed at the University of Michigan could improve the function of prosthetic hands and possibly restore the sense of touch for injured patients.
Researchers will present their updated fi...
Mercury, the silvery liquid formerly used in thermometers, is now known to be highly toxic. The worst of the toxins are organic mercury compounds, such as methylmercury. Most previous analytical procedures for the detection of methylmercury were technically difficult and could only be carried out in a laboratory.
A magnetic charge can behave and interact just like an electric charge in some materials, according to new research conducted at STFC's ISIS facility and led by the London Centre for Nanotechnology (LCN) which could ...
Use of the FT4 Powder Rheometer from Freeman Technology is enabling organic chemists at Clarochem (Ireland) Limited, to incorporate some fundamental aspects of material science into their crystallization work. This is proving to be a significant point of differentiation in their field.
BASF SE (Deutsche Börse: BAS) and The Dow Chemical Company (NYSE: Dow), the world's two largest chemical companies, today jointly announced their support for the Patent Asset Index, a new methodology that measur...
A team led by physicists at the Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC) and Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) have resolved a decade-long puzzle that is set to have huge implications for use of one of the most versatile classes of materials available to us for future technology applications: copper oxide ceramics. The results are published online this week in the journal Nature Physics.
