Rice University materials scientists have introduced a combined electrolyte and separator for rechargeable lithium-ion batteries that supplies energy at usable voltages and in high temperatures. An essential part of the nonflammable, toothpaste-like composite is hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN), the atom-thin compound often called "white graphene."

The Full Service Foundry division of ams and Sarda Technologies, a disruptive power management component supplier, has announced at the CDNLive event in Santa Clara/CA, that ams is manufacturing Sarda’s advanced high-voltage CMOS drivers which play a key role in their Heterogeneous Integrated Power Stage (HIPS).

From changing the phase of glass to moving copper ions around, Sally Ward-Foxton reports on some of the most novel and interesting memory technologies to come to market in recent months.

Nowadays it is impossible to imagine industry without robots. Safety laser scanners mostly safeguard dangerous areas and protect people from collisions. But optical sensors have their limitations, for instance when plastic surfaces, dust or smoke obstruct their line of sight. Fraunhofer researchers have developed a new, high-frequency radar scanner that cuts through these obstacles. It can monitor its environment in a 360-degree radius, making it...

Rice University scientists have determined that two-dimensional boron is a natural low-temperature superconductor. In fact, it may be the only 2D material with such potential.Rice theoretical physicist Boris Yakobson and his co-workers published their calculations that show atomically flat boron is metallic and will transmit electrons with no resistance. The work appears this month in the American Chemical Society journal Nano Letters.

AIXTRON has announced that Plessey Semiconductors Ltd. has ordered its AIX G5+ C cluster system for the production capacity expansion of gallium nitride LEDs manufactured on silicon wafers (GaN-on-Si). The tool is scheduled for delivery in the third quarter 2016.

Kenneth Thum, Senior Technical Support Engineer at Indium Corporation will present Risk of No-Clean Flux Not Fully Dried Under ComponentTerminations at IPC Thailand on April 26 in Bangkok, Thailand. Thum’s presentation will discuss a new halogen-free, no-clean SAC solder paste that has been developed to Avoid the Void and to address the reliability issues caused by insufficiently dried or burnt-off flux residue.

With new technology getting smaller and smaller, requiring greater energy support with more options, University of Cincinnati physics research points to new robust electrical potential using quantum nanowire structures. The tiny miracle fibers may lead to advances in sensitive electronic technology including heat detecting optical infrared sensors and biomedical testing, all of which can fit inside small electrical devices.

Allied Machine & Engineering Corp offers a complete range of ALVAN expandable precision reamers, the ideal tool for high volume production wherever high quality, tight tolerances, or superior finish is critical. The ALVAN line is available through an exclusive supply agreement with S.C.A.M.I., an Italy-based maker of high quality precision reamers. Allied has a large team of in-house application engineers to help select the right product for ...

Airbus Defence and Space has developed and delivered the qualification model of the solar array for the European Service Module (ESM) of the Orion crewed spacecraft. During a deployment test at NASA's Plum Brook Station facility in Sandusky, Ohio (USA), the model came through the test with flying colours.
