Two researchers want to make sure future generations of TV watchers will be able to see the brightest, most beautiful colour possible and for a lot less money

Computer power supply units are now hot components, in more than one sense of the word. Peter Brownlee explores the issues as PSUs double in power — then double again

Australia's showcase exhibition on manufacturing and technology, Manufacturing Technology InFocus, will open its doors at the Sydney Convention and Exhibition Centre from 23 to 26 July

Today there are large boards and shop displays that talk directly to customers, using digital information embedded in the paper

An electronic revolution could be on the way with the development of a thin film of plastic that conducts electricity and produces solar power, changing the way we light our homes and design clothes

Researchers have made an important advance in the emerging field of spintronics that may one day usher in a new generation of smaller, smarter, faster computers, sensors and other devices

Plastic electronics have been in the public eye since three scientists won the 2000 Nobel Prize for their contribution to the discovery and development of conductive polymer plastics

A new variation of a familiar platinum-nickel alloy has been identified and claimed to be the most active oxygen-reducing catalyst ever reported

Graphene, a form of bonded carbon, may become the next buzz word in electronics over the next 10 to 20 years if the current rate of miniaturisation continues

As ever shortening product lifetimes impose tighter and tighter time-to-market pressures, the variety of CAD/EDA software looks more and more bewildering and the make-or-buy question for PCB design remains as hotly argued as ever

By the first years of the twentieth century, electronic communication technologies such as the telegraph, telephone and radio were transforming advanced societies, creating new industries and, in the process, fuelling demands for efficient, reliable circuitry that could also be mass produced as economically as possible.

Just who invented the printed circuit? And how? Considering the crucial importance of printed circuitry to modern electronics, the story is surprisingly obscure

When choosing a digital multimeter, not only is it important to look at basic specifications, features, functions and overall value of the meter but it also needs to meet the latest and most demanding safety standards

Strong support is emerging for a nationally focused push to grow the Australian photonics/optoelectronics industry internationally, according to AEEMA's chief executive, Angus M Robinson

The green revolution has finally hit the IT community. And whether such solutions are being implemented due to legislation, commercial reasons or a genuine concern for the environment, change is afoot
