MIT engineers have developed a polymer named polythiophene that conducts heat efficiently. It’s flexible, lightweight and 10 times more conductive than conventional polymers. It can be directly coated onto silicon wafers and various...
A new study indicates that there should be 10,000 to 20,000 black holes in just a 6 light-years-wide region, near center of the Milky way galaxy. Astrophysicist used Chandra X-ray Observatory data to verify their method. They were able to find 12...
Researchers develop a unique system that can efficiently transfer power through free space. The system could make it easy to wirelessly charge a mobile at some distance from the power socket. It works by transferring the signal with specific...
Researchers develop a system that allows you to communicate seamlessly with your personal digital device and other people without speaking anything. The system analyzes neuromuscular signals in the face and correlates them with specific words. ...
Amazon and Google file patents that outline how audio and visual signals could be utilized to analyze users’ interest and behavior. They want to collect users’ data via smart household device(s), even when it’s not triggered by...
Optalysys demonstrates its optical processing technology performing AI at the speed of light. It uses energy efficient laser light instead of silicon processing technique. The U.K-based technology company, named Optalysys has developed the first...
Engineers develop a half millimeter thick optically rewritable liquid crystal display. It’s cheap to produce and consumes far less energy than conventional LCDs. Flexible spacers and Polyethersulfone substrates are used to make this display. These...
The phosphorus atoms in our body have the necessary nuclear spin that could act as biochemical qubits. Scientists are studying the nuclear spin and other dynamics of nano-clusters of spherically-shaped Posner molecules, which could be performing a...
Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite will be launched on 16th April on SpaceX Falcon 9. It will discover exoplanets ranging from gas giants to size of Earth. During the 2 year mission, the satellite will monitor 200,000 stars less than 300 light...
One of the greatest minds of this era, Stephan Hawking died on 14 March 2018. And look at the coincidence, it is the very same date when Albert Einstein was born almost 140 years ago. He inspired the next generation of researchers. For many Hawking...
Space business is booming. Recently, a startup founded in 2013, Oxford Space Systems, announced that they are developing a giant, expandable antenna and innovative structures that meet the challenges of the new space age. Oxford Space Systems rely...
Physicists have developed a new form of photonics matter by sticking three photons together under certain conditions. The bound-photons have a fraction of mass of electron and move about 100,000 times slower than usual non-interacting photons. We...
