Ad Support : Nano Technology Netbook Technology News Computer Software The University of Michigan developed a low power chip for cubic millimeter sensors in 2009. It was built in 180 micron lithography process so the chip could theoretically be reduced in size by about 20 times with the latest lithography process. However, the key is power …
1. Fabrication and Characterization of CMOS-MEMS Thermoelectric Micro Generators (11 page pdf) This work presents a thermoelectric micro generator fabricated by the commercial 0.35 μm complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) process and the post-CMOS process. The micro generator is composed of 24 thermocouples in series. Each thermocouple is constructed by p-type and n-type polysilicon strips. …
Ad Support : Nano Technology Netbook Technology News Computer Software Zdnet visited Stan Williams at HP Labs to discuss memristors * It will take us about 3 years before we have commercial memristors. The good news is that they are easy to make and completely compatible with standard CMOS chip manufacturing techniques. They also scale to …
The Wimax communication technology could be making a breakout in India as reported by Businessweek. Sprint will be rolling out a WiMax network in Washington next month (April 2008), and in other U.S. cities next year {2009). Until now the most advanced use of WiMax has been in Japan and Korea, where Japanese carrier KDDI …
Picture is the 16 qubit prototype. There was a 28 qubit prototype as well. A new announcement seems to imply 2000-4000 qubits by the end of 2008. “low thousands of qubits by the end of the year [2008]”. The die has room for a million qubits. A research paper has results that compare the time …
