Dilute magnetic semiconductor for 'spintronic' devices
12 September, 2013Resaearchers have developed a new compound that can be integrated into silicon chips and is a dilute magnetic semiconductor - meaning that it could be used to make 'spintronic' devices, which rely on magnetic force to operate, rather than electrical currents.
Scotch Magic Tape for smaller and better electronics
09 September, 2013A groundbreaking technique in manufacturing nanostructures is claimed to have the potential to make electrical and optical devices smaller and better than ever before.
Revolutionising electronics through graphene
05 September, 2013 by Mike Smyth, specialist technical writerGraphene has the potential to change the world of electronics in much the same way that transistors and integrated circuits did last century. But use of this wonder material is still very much in the development stage in many laboratories and research centres around the world and, while promises are high, the widespread practical use of graphene is proving elusive.
