| First observation of atomic diffusion inside bulk material Posted: 13 Oct 2014 08:23 AM PDT Researchers have obtained the first direct observations of atomic diffusion inside a bulk material. The research could be used to give unprecedented insight into the lifespan and properties of new materials. |
| 'Smart' lithium-ion battery warns of fire hazard Posted: 13 Oct 2014 06:05 AM PDT Scientists have developed a 'smart' lithium-ion battery that gives ample warning before it overheats and bursts into flames. The new technology is designed for conventional lithium-ion batteries now used in billions of cellphones, laptops and other electronic devices, as well as a growing number of cars and airplanes. |
| Ultra-fast charging batteries that can be 70% recharged in just two minutes Posted: 13 Oct 2014 06:04 AM PDT Scientists have developed a new battery that can be recharged up to 70 per cent in only 2 minutes. The battery will also have a longer lifespan of over 20 years. Expected to be the next big thing in battery technology, this breakthrough has a wide-ranging impact on many industries, especially for electric vehicles which are currently inhibited by long recharge times of over 4 hours and the limited lifespan of batteries. |
| New records set for silicon quantum computing Posted: 12 Oct 2014 10:48 AM PDT Two research teams working in the same laboratories have found distinct solutions to a critical challenge that has held back the realization of super powerful quantum computers. The teams created two types of quantum bits, or "qubits" -- the building blocks for quantum computers -- that each process quantum data with an accuracy above 99%. |
| A novel platform for future spintronic technologies Posted: 12 Oct 2014 10:48 AM PDT Spintronics is a new field of electronics, using electron spin rather than charge. Scientists have now shown that a conventional electrical insulator can be used as an optimal spintronic device. |
