14-10-27 Physics researchers at Virginia Commonwealth University have discovered that most of the electrolytes used in lithium-ion batteries -- commonly found in consumer electronic devices -- are superhalogens, and that the vast majority of these electrolyt...

14-06-03 Writing in Nature Physics, a large international team led by Dr Artem Mishchenko and Sir Andre Geim from The University of Manchester shows that the electronic properties of graphene change dramatically if graphene is placed on top of boron nitride...

14-03-05 Usually, microelectronic devices are made of silicon or similar semiconductors. Recently, the electronic properties of metal oxides have become quite interesting. These materials are more complex, yet offer a broader range of possibilities to tune t...

14-02-23 A multi-university team of engineers has developed what could be a promising solution for charging smartphone batteries on the go -- without the need for an electrical cord. Incorporated（合并，包含） directly into a cell phone housing, the team's n...

14-01-23 From the world of nanotechnology we've gotten electronic skin, or e-skin, and electronic eye implants or e-eyes. Now we're on the verge of electronic whiskers（胡须） . Researchers with Berkeley Lab and the University of California (UC) Berkeley hav...

14-01-23 As smartphones, tablets and other gadgets become smaller and more sophisticated, the heat they generate while in use increases. This is a growing problem because it can cause the electronics inside the gadgets to fail. Conventional wisdom suggests t...

13-11-11 The US is relaxing its rules to allow air passengers to listen to music, play video games and watch films on their phones and tablets during takeoffs and landings. 美国联邦航空局日前出台新规定，航空乘客获准用手机或平板电脑听音乐、玩游戏及看电影，但...

13-10-18 In the tech-centered world in which we live, it's inevitable that electronic devices might be periodically subjected to a bit of an overhaul, but what if our attempts at maintenance or improvement leave them worse for wear? This is the circumstance...

13-05-19 Materials belonging to the family of dilute（稀释的） magnetic oxides (DMOs) -- an oxide-based variant of the dilute magnetic semiconductors -- are good candidates for spintronics（自旋电子学） applications. This is the object of study for Davide Sa...
