Heat Sinks Designed for Higher Power Densities

 

The new R2 Series of heat sinks from Ohmite combines thermal performance with the attachment mechanism of the popular C Series. This heat sink is capable of attaching either a TO-220 or a TO-247 component and is offered in both degreased and black anodized finishes. The convenient camming clip eliminates the need for mounting holes and screws. By eliminating the need for a … [Read more...]

GM to Stop Chevy Volt Battery Coolant Fires

 

General Motors is going to modify its Chevrolet Volt plug-in car to eliminate the possibility that its batteries can catch on fire hours or days after a serious side-impact crash. It turns out that battery coolant could leak on an electronic board, causing the fire. The leaks were discovered in tests in which a Volt was rotated until it was inverted. Only a small amount of … [Read more...]

Nanomaterials Doped Polymer Nanowires Synthesized by Pulsed Laser Irradiation

 

International Center for Materials Nanoarchitectonics (MANA) has succeeded in synthesizing nanomaterials doped polymer nanowires by a pulsed laser irradiation. The polymer nanowires grew perpendicular to the surface of a source film that included the nanomaterials and dye molecules as a photoabsorber. The technique is one of the solutions for fabricating of molecular devices … [Read more...]

Emails, more Emails and Jeff Bridges

 

It's estimated that, from a figure of 0.4% in 1995, now about 30% of the world's population are 'internet users'. Not sure exactly what being a 'user' entails; looking at a web page? clicking a link? sending an email? Probably the latter considering how many I receive.
