There’s nothing worse than a pool table with an unseen groove or bump that sends your shot off course: a new study has found that the same goes at the nano-scale, where the “billiard balls” are tiny electrons moving across a “table” made of the semiconductor gallium arsenide. In a research paper titled “The Impact of Small-Angle Scattering on Ballistic Transport in Quantum … [Read more...]
Bullet-Proof Vest with Internal Fans and Liquid Cooling Technology
The Swiss Federal Laboratories for Materials Science and Technology (EMPA) has developed a “smart” bullet-proof protective vest that features water-filled Coolpads and an internal mini fan. The protective vest was designed to prevent on-duty police officers from overheating while maintaining their safety and wellbeing. The vest is comprised of a specialized fabric spacer … [Read more...]
Researchers Control Heat Flow with Atoms
Through a combination of atomic-scale materials design and ultrafast measurements, researchers at the University of Illinois have revealed new insights about how heat flows across an interface between two materials. The researchers demonstrated that a single layer of atoms can disrupt or enhance heat flow across an interface. The researchers first deposited a single layer of … [Read more...]

dataMate™, a division of Methode Electronics, Inc.’s Data Solutions Group, announced the development of a patent pending SFP+ cage system with advanced thermal management features to prevent data error and hardware failure due to excessive heat. dataMate™ has developed a new cage system which utilizes a series of thermally conductive compliant fingers that make direct contact … [Read more...]
A Little Goes A Long Way (But A Lot Doesn’t Go Much Further)
It has been almost 3 years since I started this blog and I hope you’ve found it as interesting as I have cathartic. Although I’m not as yet bereft of topic ideas, I thought this would be a good time to solicit a guest blog from industry. It was either that or a Simponsesque montage of previous posts. I covered the highly successful provision of FloTHERM models of … [Read more...]
