Matthew Carroll Pennsylvania State University A team of scientists has developed a new mechanism to harvest stray magnetic fields all around us and convert the energy into useful, usable electricity. (Image credit: Kai Wang.) The electricity that ...

Sam Davis Power Electronics A collaborative research project is making use of temperature fluctuations to produce electricity. Generating electricity in unique ways is getting the attention of scientists at the University at Buffalo and MIT. ...

Applying the physics principle of radiative sky cooling, a team was able to harvest a small but useful amount of energy from the cool night sky using a simple, low-cost, non-critical arrangement. Approaches to harvesting “free” energy ...

VR skin gets power and command signals wirelessly. Actually feeling a hug from your mother or a friend through a video call may become a reality soon if a team of biomedical researchers from City University of Hong Kong and Northwestern University ...

PowerPulse Negative capacitance has been in the news twice this week; first as a potentially enabling technology for more efficient computing and second as a way to improve the efficiency and stability of perovskite solar cells. With a little ...

Редакционная статья Electronic Specifier Researchers from Los Alamos National Laboratory, Northwestern University and Rice University have tweaked their crystal production method and developed a type of two-dimensional layered perovskite with ...

Janine Love EDN Today, there is a printer called The EX¹ launching on Kickstarter. The inventors, three students who formed Cartesian Co. , demonstrate how you can quickly create circuit boards on paper, plastic, glass, wood, ceramic, ...
