- Towards low-cost LED lighting
- You all know that incandescent bulbs are pretty inefficient, converting only 10% of electricity into light -- and 90% into heat. Light-emitting diodes, or LEDs, could soon replace incandescent and compact fluorescent bulbs in our homes. They are more efficient and environmentally friendly. But LED lights are currently too expensive...

- Testing new transistors in space
- Northwestern University researchers have developed new transistors which are currently tested on the International Space Station ISS to see how they react to cosmic radiation. These transistors, which are using a new kind of gate dielectric material called a self-assembled nanodielectric SAND, are exposed to radiation outside the ISS since...

- Silicon Alley Insider's startup index: Click bait? Nah. It's tip bait
- Lists have never done much for me--especially financial lists. It's financial porn: Forbes' most wealthy people; the Fortune 500; 10 mutual funds you must have now and a few hundred other lists. And now Silicon Alley Insider has launched a startup valuation index that's bound to be a conversation starter....

- Technology Brief: Carrier Vs. Enterprise Ethernet Silicon
- Ethernet has been the dominant networking protocol in Local Area Networks LANs due to its high bandwidth, ease of use, and low cost. Until recently, its success in LANs has not translated to communications networks due to limitations in Ethernet's scalability, reliability, and manageability. With the latest developed standards and...

- Promise of more efficient solar cells
- Canadian researchers have found a way to make solar cells more efficient, perhaps twice as efficient as current tech used to convert sunlight into electricity. The work was done at Canada's McMasters University and is already in commercial development. It uses one-crystal thick layers of solar collecting materials...

- ATI acquisition might be key to AMD's future success
- Without a doubt, 2007 was a bad year for AMD. A price war with Intel, the acquisition of ATi, chip delays, and chip bugs. Any one of these would have been bad, but all of these combined meant that AMD had a really tough year. But 2008 could be a...

- Evanescent lasers to speed up data transmission
- It is refreshing to note that some scientists also have a solid literary culture. Researchers at UC Santa Barbara UCSB have built the world's first mode-locked silicon evanescent laser. But what is an 'evanescent' laser? It is a step toward 'combining lasers and other key optical components with the existing...

- Nanotechnology boosts solar cells performance
- Physicists from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign UIUC have improved the performance of solar cells by 60 percent. And they obtained this spectacular result by using a very simple trick. They've coated the solar cells with a film of 1-nanometer thick silicon fluorescing nanoparticles. The researchers also said that...
