- Computers have speed limit as unbreakable as speed of light, say physicists
- Yeah, they have been saying this same thing for years....and everytime, they find a way to make computers even faster. I don't think that they will EVER reach a limit for computer power. Not ever.FacinatingI always knew there would be a wall somewhere, but what will be needed with that...

- SingleCrystal 1.5.3 (Mac)
- SingleCrystal is an elegant, easy-to-use program for visualizing and understanding diffraction patterns from single crystals. SingleCrystal lets you simulate simulation electron diffraction patterns and reciprocal lattice sections - which can be compared directly with observed data. The program also lets you display stereographic projections of planes, traces, zones and zone...

- Scientists create 'transparent aluminum,' call it a new state of matter
- Oxford scientists claim to have created a transparent form of aluminum by bombarding the metal with the world’s most powerful soft X-ray laser. The substance is nearly transparent to extreme ultraviolet radiation and is the latest addition to a growing list of exotic states of matter. Crossing...

- Nehalem servers could spark a $27bn feeding frenzy
- Nehalem servers could spark a $27bn feeding frenzyItanium doesn't stand a chance to NehalemOne things for sure (and probably why Intels Tukwila/Itanium has slipped by about a year) is that Itanium doesn't stand a chance against Nehalem and even when Tukwila does arrive, will have a tough ride against Nehalem-EX....

- New physics as applied to solar tech
- Scientists at Los Alamos Lab in New Mexico have confirmed that it's possible for a single photon to create more than one electron. They have tracked the phenomenon in nanotech semiconductor crystals. This research can enable more efficient solar panels. The research shows a conventional solar cell...

- Quantum holographic storage: it works!
- Researchers at Stanford University have demonstrated quantum holographic storage, shattering long-held assumptions about the information limits of matter. Moving into the sub-atomic realm, they permanently stored 35 bits in the quantum space surrounding a single electron. Moreover, the technique allows holograms to be "stacked" in 3 dimensions....

- Asking a paranoid question
- Asking a paranoid questionI don't know...But I'll venture an answer anyway, because this is all in the name of fun...I don't think inserting instructions is possible.Disruption almost certainly is, although I would have to question the economy of targetting specific interconnects between components. The problem is that anything you...

- Looking at single atoms of hydrogen
- As you probably know, graphene is a one-atom-thick sheet of carbon atoms packed in a dense two-dimensional honeycomb lattice. And it recently became very popular recently as a basis for ultra-fast transistors. Now, according to Science News, U.S. researchers are using graphene to image individual hydrogen atoms via a standard...

- Nanoscale microscope on a chip
- New Scientist recently reported that a UK company is developing a microscope on a chip four times more powerful than the best scanning electron microscopes SEMs available today. The best SEMs have a resolution of 0.05 nanometer. This new one, which will be small enough to fit onto a fingertip,...

- Looking inside our skin
- Researchers from the European Molecular Biology Laboratory EMBL have taken the closest look ever at native human tissue by using an advanced microscopy technique called cryo-electron tomography. This technique allows to obtain molecular resolution images of intact cells. The researchers were able to reveal the Velcro-like molecular organization of...

- A supercomputer to design better plants?
- Is it possible to create more productive crops than nature does without growing hybrids or genetically modified plants? According to researchers at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign UIUC, the answer is yes . They've simulated photosynthesis, the process by which plants convert light to energy, with the help of supercomputers...

- Self-powered nanowires
- Many research teams around the world are building nanodevices of some kind. But these very small devices need very small sources of power to be fully functional. Now, researchers at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign UIUC have shown that a single nanowire can produce power by harvesting mechanical energy...

- A one-atom thick billiard table
- A team of physicists at the University of California at Riverside UCR have found that graphene, which was isolated experimentally only less than three years ago, and which is a one-atom thick sheet of carbon atoms arranged in hexagonal rings, can act as an atomic-scale billiard table. They found that...

- The most powerful microscope in the world
- A new microscope developed by the TEAM Project (Transmission Electron Aberration-corrected Microscope), supported by the U.S. Department of Energy, has recorded the highest-resolution images ever seen (0.05 nanometer and below). This is equivalent to a quarter of the diameter of a carbon atom. This microscope will be delivered to the...

- If you don't know the answer, I cannot blame you. After all, a query for 'nanopantography' on Google returns only 43 results as I'm typing this. But researchers from the University of Houston say that nanopantography can create billions of nanotech devices in hours. The idea behind the technology is...
