GaN-based chargers have been introduced to the market. These chargers provide a high amount of power for the device, while still maintaining a size that is reasonable, and even take up less space than the traditional chargers. Gallium Nitride, or GaN…
At the moment, there is a view that graphene's ongoing fever in China is overdone.In the view of zhao meng, deputy secretary general of the China international graphene industrial resources alliance, the market decides whether graphene should continu…
Modern industry cannot function without ultrafine alumina. Alumina powders with ultrafine or fine grain have a different surface electronic structure, and crystal structure, which results in surface effects, and smaller sizes, that cannot be found in…
British media have reported that scientists made a major discovery - the conversion from radio signals to electricity. Popularly speaking, this is power generation via WiFi! We may see battery-free phones and battery-free laptops in the future. MoS2…
What is Hafnium Carbide and Tantalum Carbide? Tantalum carbide is a brown powdered metal cubic of the sodium chloride system. The tantalum carbide used today is a sintered cemented carbide grain growth inhibitor. This has an important effect in suppr…
GaN is a semiconductor material of third-generation with a large forbidden-band width. It has superior properties compared to first-generation Si, and second-generation GaAs. GaN devices, due to the large band gaps and high thermal conductivity of G…
Flexible electronics can benefit from ultra-thin materials of atomic thickness, which are used for manufacturing microprocessors. Recent breakthroughs have been made in this area by researchers at the Vienna University of Technology, Vienna, and the…
What is aluminium nitride (AlN)?Aluminum nitride (a covalent-bond compound) is an atomic-crystal belonging to a diamondlike nitride. It is non-toxic with a white or grayish white color. Aluminum nitride formula AlN. Aluminum nitride, which is metal-t…
SLS Nylon Powder PrintingNylon sintering (selective laser sintering) is a project that uses spread powder sticks to tile a thick layer of powder materials, such as 3D printed metal powders, on parts. It is heated below the powder melting temperature…
What is Alumina? Alumina. Chemical formula Al2O3. The refractory industry uses ionic crystals that are ionized at high temperatures. Diaspore and bauxite (Al2O3*3H2O), which are both mineral aluminates, are used in the production of industrial alu…
Alumina fibres have a lower thermal conductivity and heat capacity. The temperature of long-term usage is higher than that of ordinary aluminum silicate (1000 1100 degC). It can be used with acidic atmosphere, oxidizing environment, reducing atmosphe…
US nanotechnology plan for research and development The US investment is equivalent to the amount invested by Japan and EU countries in the research and development of Nanotechnology. This field is equivalent to the investment of Japan and EU countri…
