Self-Healable Electronic Material That Can Help Prevent Overheating

 

(May 16, 2016) A new, more durable electronic material has recently been created to repair itself and heal all its functionality even after breaking several times. Phys.org detailed, “Self-healable materials are those that, after withstanding physical deformation such as being cut in half, naturally repair themselves with little to no external influence.” “Researchers have … [Read more...]

Potential Electronics Cooling Application of Carbon Nanotubes

 

(April 21st, 2016) A technique has been found that could allow carbon nanotubes to be used in electronic cooling and as devices in microchips, sensors and circuits in the future. Phys.org reported that the technique “uses a laser and electrical current to precisely position and align carbon nanotubes” to make it a “potential new tool for creating electronic devices out of the … [Read more...]

Diamonds May Take Silicon’s Place in Future Smartphones

 

A startup called Akhan Semi suggests lab-grown diamonds can cool electronics more efficiently than silicon. Silicon costs a lot to keep cool, but lab-grown diamonds could eliminate cooling fans and heat sinks since they already eliminate 90% of the energy lost by silicon, according to Adam Khan, founder and CEO of Akhan Semi, the diamond-making startup. “Because a … [Read more...]
