More Efficient Nano-LED Could Lead to Faster Microchips
Scientists at the Eindhoven University of Technology in the Netherlands have created a nano-LED light source that is 1000 times more efficient than its predecessors that may take the brakes off the growth of data traffic on chips.
The research team was able to developed a LED of some hundred nanometers with an integrated light channel to transport the light signal at a much more efficient rate of between 0.01 and 1 percent, which could be raised even higher with a new production method.

Scientists Determine Precise 3D Location and Identity of all 23,000 Atoms in a Nanoparticle
The 3D reconstruction reveals the arrangement of atoms in unprecedented detail, enabling the scientists to measure chemical order and disorder in individual grains, which sheds light on the material’s properties at the single-atom level. Insights gained from the particle’s structure could lead to new ways to improve its magnetic performance for use in high-density, next-generation hard drives.
What’s more, the technique used to create the reconstruction, atomic electron tomography (which is like an incredibly high-resolution CT scan), lays the foundation for precisely mapping the atomic composition of other useful nanoparticles. This could reveal how to optimize the particles for more efficient catalysts, stronger materials, and disease-detecting fluorescent tags.

New class of materials could revolutionize biomedical, alternative energy industries
Boranes are chemically stable and have been tested at extreme heat of up to 900 degrees Celsius or 1,652 degrees Fahrenheit. It is the thermodynamic stability these molecules exhibit that make them non-toxic and attractive to the biomedical, personal computer and alternative energy industries.
