Beyond Moore’s Law: taking transistor arrays into the third dimension
Nanoparticle-based, bio-inspired catalyst could help make more efficient reactions affordable
Chemical processes usually give us both mirror image versions of a molecule when we want only one.
Toward molecular computers: First measurement of single-molecule heat transfer
If Moore’s law’s endgame is really computer components made from single molecules, we’re going to need to know how to cool them.
U-M receives $6.25M to study heat-to-electricity conversion and cooling with LEDs
Michigan Engineering is leading four other universities in Department of Defense-funded research.
Running an LED in reverse could cool future computers
Harnessing heat flow at the nanoscale while suppressing thermal radiation from the LED enables a new approach to light-based cooling.
Toward protein nanomachines: just add charge
Added electrical charges can harness a protein’s shape and chemical properties to build interesting structures.
