China’s main developer of nuclear power plants says it plans to raise money with an initial public offering, suggesting an industry building boom is resuming after being suspended following Japan’s nuclear disaster last year. The IPO will help to pay for a 173.5 billion yuan ($27 billion) program to build or expand five nuclear power …
NanoInk announced today the availability of High Density (HD) Tip Arrays for Polymer Pen Lithography (PPL). These high-density elastomeric pen arrays are ideal for high-throughput deposition of ink materials. Similar to standard Dip Pen Nanolithography® (DPN®) with regular silicon nitride pens, High Density Tip Arrays can be used for the deposition of molecules with well-controlled …
Physical Review Letters – Extreme Acoustic Metamaterial by Coiling Up Space We show that by coiling up space using curled perforations, a two-dimensional acoustic metamaterial can be constructed to give a frequency dispersive spectrum of extreme constitutive parameters, including double negativity, a density near zero, and a large refractive index. Such an approach has band …

This is the second theory of Traversible Wormholes (dependent upon the actual physics of the universe) that we have covered recently. This version is if string theory is true and universal inflation is true then traversable wormholes are possible without exotic matter or negative energy Another solution for wormhole stargates depending on understanding the nature …
Eurekalert- Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tags are an essential component of modern shopping, logistics, warehouse, and stock control for toll roads, casino chips and much more. They provide a simple way to track the item to which the tag is attached. Now, researchers in France have developed a way to deposit a thin aluminum RFID …
Nanotechnologists from the University of Twente’s MESA+ and MIRA research institutes have developed a method for incorporating magnetic elements into non-magnetic materials in a highly controlled way. Using this technique, it is possible to drastically change the electrical behaviour of metals and even to give semiconductors magnetic properties. University of Twente researchers were able to …
University of Cambridge – The integration of electronics with materials opens up a world of possibilities, the surface of which is just being scratched. Professor Arokia Nathan has joined the University to take up a new Chair in Engineering, where he will be exploring the application of research that allows us to glimpse a world …
Digitimes Research – Market watchers have mostly expected Apple to follow its traditional pricing strategy for its next-generation tablet device, which is likely to start from US$499 with the present iPad 2 to drop to US$399. Sources from Apple’s supply chain have claimed that there will be two versions of the new iPad, one targeting …
NY Times – “China must move to IPv6,” Dr. Wu said. “In the U.S., some people don’t believe it’s urgent, but we believe it’s urgent.” IPv6 — Internet Protocol version 6 — offers advanced security and privacy options, but more important, many more I.P. addresses, whose supply on the present Internet (IPv4) is almost exhausted. …
The 2011 International Electron Device Meeting is held annually to describe the state of the art in transistors and switching circuits. This year’s Washington meeting is exploring a variety of options for continuing Moore’s law for as long as is feasible. The keynote speaker, Intel Senior Fellow Mark Bohr, noted that traditional scaling ran out …
