But rather than moving around dye like an E-Ink screen, IMOD uses tiny moving mirror-like elements, referred to as being a micro-electro-mechanical system, or MEMS (also known as a “micro-machine”). The downside to IMOD has historically been that it ...
Supplier of high-performance power and sensor semiconductor ICs, Allegro MicroSystems, announces that the company has established a new R&D centre in the Czech Republic. This new centre is currently staffed with two dozen engineers located in Prague.
The discovery of buckyballs astonished and pleased chemists in the 1980s, nanotubes enthused physicists in the 1990s, and graphene excited materials scientists in the 2000s, but one nanoscale carbon structure - a negatively curved surface known as a ...
(Nanowerk News) A team of engineers at the University of Delaware is developing next-generation smart textiles by creating flexible carbon nanotube composite coatings on a wide range of fibers, including cotton, nylon and wool. Their discovery is reported ...
