Crossed nanotubes could form a
quantum dot
August 1, 2003
*************************
A carbon-nanotube cross structure
could theoretically produce quantum
dots small enough to show
single-electron effects at room
temperature, according to
researchers at Stanford University.
This structure could form by
self-assembly and could be a good
candidate for devices such as
single-electron...

Molecules build a bridge to
spintronics
August 1, 2003
*************************
A new generation of devices that
harness the spin of electrons has
moved closer. In a recent
experiment, University of California
at Santa Barbara researchers have
transferred electron spins across
molecular "bridges" between quantum
dots for the first time and at room...

Power from blood could lead to
'human batteries'
August 4, 2003
*************************
Researchers in Japan are developing
a method of drawing power from blood
glucose, mimicking the way the body
generates energy from food.
Theoretically, it could allow a
person to pump out 100 watts,
ignoring body needs. The "bio-nano"
generator could be used to run
devices embedded in the body or...

July 31, 2003
*************************
The first commercial holographic
memory should be on the market next
year. Theoretically, it's possible
to store a terabyte of data on a
CD-sized disk, with transfer rate of
a billion bits a second (at least 60
times faster than current...
