Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have recently discovered that by dissolving certain metals into silicon, they can add that silicon compound to the relatively short list of exotic substances that exhibit retrograde melting. Their accomplishment could ultimately result in less expensive solar cells and electronic devices. The team started by … [Read more...]
How many frogs does a horse have?
The internet is big. It’s not sentient yet, though Robert Swayer has written a compelling story of how it might ‘Wake‘. In fact it’s far from intelligent at all. Banal comments about “how we ever managed without it” will age so quickly that future historians will assume a typo, more intelligence than we currently have and take the phrase to … [Read more...]
Heat Sinks Contribute to Cool Silence
Silent-cooled graphics cards are becoming increasingly prevalent as PC hardware is becoming increasingly efficient. In silent cooling, a heat sink is installed in a model that engineers determine can remain safely cool without a fan. The heat sink pulls heat build up away from the graphics processor on the card, but since there are no moving parts involved in this cooling … [Read more...]

An Interview With… Clemens Lasance
Every industry or industry sub-sector has its movers and shakers, its pioneers and thought leaders. These people have likely helped shape and evolve that industry to what it is today and what it may become in the future. For this series of ‘An Interview With…’ blog posts I will be posing the same set of questions to leading lights in the electronics cooling … [Read more...]
