Researchers have discovered a new particle that doesn’t consume a lot of energy, and thus doesn’t require an elaborate cooling system. It is called the Weyl fermion, a particle that only exists inside materials and “moves through materials practically without resistance,” according to Nanowerk.com. In contrast to today’s computer chips relying on “electrons which are always … [Read more...]

Cooling High-Powered Electronics with Tiny Drops of Water
Lockheed Martin and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Microsystems Technology Office (MTO) want to cool high-powered microchips with microscopic drops of water. “A core team of Lockheed Martin engineers is working on a solution to meet the goal of DARPA’s Inter/Intra Chip Enhanced Cooling (ICECool) program: to enhance the performance of RF MMIC power … [Read more...]
New Smartphone to Use Heat Pipe Cooling
Samsung has declared that the new Galaxy S7 will use heat pipes for its cooling system. Smartphones typically lack ventilation holes and fans, so smartphone companies are moving to adopt heat pipes “because the technology should allow for more sustained boost clocking ad steadier overall performance,” according to ExtremeTech.com. “The other advantage of a heat pipe is that … [Read more...]
Scientists Grow Efficient Light-Emitting Organic Semiconductor Crystals
Recently, scientists from the faculty of physics of the Moscow State University have grown organic semiconductor crystals with extremely high light-emitting efficiency that can reduce the cost of creating light, flexible, and transparent light-emitting electronic devices, according to Phys.org. They challenged the growing of organic semiconductor crystals from a vapor phase … [Read more...]
