Researchers at the University of Colorado, Boulder, have developed a novel technique using two separate colors of light to reduce the size of circuitry employed in nanotechnology devices such as computer chips and solar cells. Existing methods of creating patterns ...
HP’s Memristor on a Chip
Following the introduction of the memristor in May 2008, HP engineers have recently unveiled the first functioning memristor circuit at the inaugural Memristor and Memristor Systems Symposium. By substituting some transistors with memristors, the team has created more physical space ...
60X Faster Internet
Scientists at the University of Sydney have developed a switch that would allow the internet to become 60 times faster than current networks. Taking four years to complete, the switch is created using a small scratch on a piece of ...
Integrated Circuit Works Using New Excitons
Researchers at the University of California, San Diego, have developed an experimental integrated circuit that works using excitons. Excitons are energized electrons bound to positively charged counterparts called holes, which form when light hits a semiconductor. The commercialization of this ...
