OXIDE THIN FILMS REPLACING PN JUNCTIONS.

North Carolina State University have developed the first functional oxide thin films that can be used efficiently in electronics, opening the door to an array of new high-power devices and smart sensors. This is the first time that researchers have been able to produce positively charged (p-type) conduction and negatively charged (n-type) conduction in a single oxide material, launching a new era in oxide electronics. To make functional electronic devices, you need materials with a "p-n junction," where the positively charged...

Google’s New Privacy Policy

As we know Google's new Privacy Policy comes into operation today. Most of us didn't read the privacy policy when we sign up for gmail. But this time we must know about the Privacy Policy of Google because we are using a number of Google's products such as Google Search, Gmail, G talk, Chrome, YouTube etc. The new Policy aims to collect information about all Google users across its products. If you not yet read the Google's new Privacy Policy you can read...

Light in place of Electricity !!!!!

A team of researchers from University of Pennsylvania led by Nader Engheta are working on the ways to use light in the place of  electricity. Using nanotechnology they had developed the first physical illustration of lumped optical circuit elements. This development will be a landmark in the emerging field of science and engineering, called METATRONICS. The word 'meta' in metatronics means metamaterials. It is a developing research field where nanostructures and patterns are embedded in materials such that they can manipulate waves...

Single Atom Transistor

Australian and American physicists had developed a Single Atom Transistor, composed of an atom of phosphorous-31 isotope. They had demonstrated a working transistor composed of a single atom, which is about 100 times smaller than the 22 nanometer cutting edge transistor fabricated by Intel. This will be big strike towards the next generation computing. The researchers's uses a combination of Scanning Tunneling Microscopy (STM) and Hydrogen-resist Lithography to place single phosphorus dopant atom on the base of Silicon with a accuracy of of one...

Why we need Windows 8 ?

Start Screen :   Microsoft is making one of the biggest upgrades through Windows 8. It replaces Start Menu with Start Screen which have tiles that contains shortcut to Applications, which is smiler to Metro interface on Windows Phone 7 OS. It will also introduce the Ribbon Interface which seen in Office 2007 to Windows Explorer. It will also launch a App store for Metro style apps that will support Windows 8. The Windows 8 has been designed to give support to ARM processors...

Graphene Transistors to Replace Silicon

Researchers at Manchester University makes a new footprint in the field of transistors. They developed a technique for improving the ON-OFF ratio of  Graphene transistors.  The newly developed Graphene transistors might replace silicon in computer chips. The main benefit of using Graphene for making transistors is that, we can scale down size of transistors to 10-15 atom across. Thus transistors can be made of nano-scale, thus it can have more transistors in chips, and makes them more powerful. Graphene's low resistance to the flow of electrons...

Germanium Nanowire Transistors

Intel revels that they had developed P-Channel Germanium Transistors,it is combined with complementary III-V N-channel transistors and forms  CMOS architecture. Germanium was found to be limited due to greater current leakage, for many years. Now the focus on germanium is due to the fact that, Germanium is more mobile than Silicon. For more than a decade, the extensive use of Germanium over Silicon has been discussing, and the first Germanium processors were predicted before 15 years, to arrive in 2007 to 2008 time. Similarly the first...
