Soap Bubbles and Films Can Solve Complex Mathematics

A team of professors from the University of Málaga say that they have developed a new method of approaching complex mathematical equations and calculations, that revolve around using soap bubbles and films as a source of inspiration. In addition to fascinating children, these structures are shaping up to becom...

New Breakthrough Could Make Silicon Chips Even Smaller

The next generation of powerful computers is just around the corner, claims a team of researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology who has recently developed a new technique that would allow semiconductor manufacturers to integrate even more transistors on silicon chips. By using light with a wavelength...

Carbon Nanotubes Get Sorted, Organized

Producing carbon nanotubes is easy - scientists cracked that secret more than a decade ago, albeit making them grow in an orderly fashion is somewhat more complicated. Or at least it was, because two teams of researchers have recently proven new methods through which carbon nanotubes can be sorted and organized so th...

World's Smallest Transistor

Moore's law accurately predicted computing power evolution for the last four decades, but in several years or so, maybe less than two decades, it will no longer be able to do so, unless the silicon material used to fabricate computer chips is soon replaced. Moore's law basically states that the number of tr...

Transistor Minimization Hits Dead End

Co-founder of the Intel Corporation, Gordon E. Moore, predicted in 1965 in a paper that the number of transistors that can be inexpensively placed on an integrated circuit would grow exponentially and duble every two years. Since then this prediction has become known as Moore's Law and described relatively accur...
