  • Light power for nanobiodevices

    Updated: 2012-07-31 12:08:52
    Scientists in China have created a laser-driven photovoltaic cell that can produce electrical power for nanobiodevices implanted beneath the skin. Wireless nanobiodevices, such as nanorobots and cardiac pacemakers, are currently limited in their applications by their requirement for power. Nanogenerators that convert mechanical energy into electrical power have been investigated, but the output power is too [...]

    Controlling the dynamic behavior of heterogeneous self-oscillating gels Belousov–Zhabotinsky gels convert chemical energy into mechanical oscillations without requiring an external stimulus. This rhythmic behaviour arises from the periodic oxidation and reduction of a ruthenium catalyst bound to the polymer. The chemical oscillations affect the hydration of the metal ion which induces the swelling and deswelling of [...]

  • Spintronics may lead to brighter and better OLEDs

    Updated: 2012-07-13 07:24:33
    Home Introduction Spintronics may lead to brighter and better OLEDs Tweet Technical Researchers from the University of Utah developed a new kind of Spintronics OLED device known as a spin-polarized OLED . This is a light emitting bipolar spin valve which uses a magnetic field to align the spin of the electrons and the electron-holes in the organic materials causing it to support more current and be . brighter The researchers hope that in the future it will be possible to control the light color using magnets . This technology also promises to turn OLEDs brighter . It's still about five years away from commercialization mainly because it requires a very cold 28F , 33C temperature . currently source : OLED-Info Jul 13, 2012 Login register to post comments Tweet Similar entries Oxygen

    Nobel laureates react to Higgs news (Blog) - physicsworld.com: “But not all Nobel laureates at the meeting were so elated. Condensed-matter physicist Robert Laughlin, who shared the 1998 prize for the discovery of a new form of quantum fluid, thinks that particle physics is in trouble, no matter what is discovered at the Large Hadron Collider. His view is that governments justified “big physics” research for defence reasons because particle physics followed nuclear physics, which had given countries the bomb. “Those motivations are less obvious today, which is good for the world but bad for the field in the long term,” he told physicsworld.com.”
