A group of researchers from Russia and the U.K. have discovered that electron chirality in graphene impacts current flow. The team’s paper, which was published in the journal Nature Physics, explains how the group detected and measured the impact of chirality in graphene. The researchers suggests that this discovery could lead to better tunneling electronic devices and new … [Read more...]
2D Hybrid Perovskites Grown
Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory have grown atomically thin 2D sheets of organic-inorganic hybrid perovskites. These 2D hybrid perovskites are ionic materials that have unique properties, making them possible successors to silicon. “The ultrathin sheets are of high quality, large in area, and square-shaped. They also … [Read more...]
Phosphorene Has Unique Qualities
In 2014, researchers conducted experiments where they exfoliated black phosphorus, or phosphorene, into very thin films of about 10 to 20 atoms thick. Phosphorene, has an inherent bandgap, or energy band in which no electron states can exist, that graphene lacks. According to Philip Feng, an assistant professor of electrical engineering and computer science at Case Western … [Read more...]
Company CEO Asks “Is Free Cooling Really Free?” At Conference
CEO of LiquidCooling Solutions, Inc., Herb Zien, is serving on a panel until Thursday, Sept. 24, at the North America’s Emerging Green Conference in Portland, Oregon. On Wednesday Sept. 23, from 1:30 – 3:00 p.m., Zien will give a presentation that challenges the legitimacy of Free Cooling. Zien will explain inefficiencies and environmental waste associated with free cooling via … [Read more...]
University Produces Smart Compliers to Assist Research During ‘Dark Silicon’ Era
Researchers from Lancaster University believe a ‘dark silicon’ era is rapidly approaching. This era suggests more than 80 percent of computer processors’ transistors will be turned off and ‘remain dark’ in order to prevent the chips from overheating. “Hardware design is rapidly evolving to prevent this need to 'power down' transistors and coming up with innovative solutions. … [Read more...]
