| Zinc oxide materials tapped for tiny energy harvesting devices Posted: 13 Jan 2015 09:09 AM PST Today, we're surrounded by a variety of electronic devices that are moving increasingly closer to us -- we can attach and wear them, or even implant electronics inside our bodies. Many types of smart devices are readily available and convenient to use. The goal now is to make wearable electronics that are flexible, sustainable and powered by ambient renewable energy.  |
| Novel multiferroic materials, devices integrated with silicon chips developed Posted: 13 Jan 2015 08:16 AM PST Two advances in multiferroic materials have been made by scientists, including the ability to integrate them on a silicon chip, which will allow the development of new electronic memory devices. The researchers have already created prototypes of the devices and are in the process of testing them.  |
| Wonder material silicene still stands just out of reach Posted: 12 Jan 2015 03:10 PM PST Silicene is the thinnest form of silicon. It is metallic, has graphene-like mobile carriers and can behave like a semiconductor. The wonder material could lead to even smaller electronics but challenges remain.  |
| New superconducting hybrid crystals Posted: 12 Jan 2015 10:54 AM PST A new type of 'nanowire' crystals that fuses semiconducting and metallic materials on the atomic scale could lay the foundation for future semiconducting electronics.  |
