When the new iphone came out, customers complained that it could be bent-but what if you could roll up your too big 6 Plus to actually fit in your pocket?
Consumers also demand phones to be lighter, faster, smaller, more flexible, wearable, bendable, etc. Yet silicon is also rigid one can bend your smart phone or computer.
These physical limitations have driven the race for new materials that can be used as semiconductors in lieu of silicon.
In addition, the researchers anticipate that it could also lead to important improvement for devices that monitor the environment. e believe these materials are important members in a large family of 2d materials
The results demonstrate a powerful operando technique-from the Latin for"in working condition"-that may revolutionize research on catalysts

or light-based wireless communication While lasers were invented in 1960 and are used commonly in many applications,
Cun-Zheng Ning, professor in the School of Electrical, Computer and Energy Engineering, authored the paper, monolithic white laser, with his doctoral students Fan Fan, Sunay Turkdogan, Zhicheng Liu
more energy efficient and can potentially provide more accurate and vivid colors for displays like computer screens and televisions.
Ning group has shown already that their structures could cover as much as 70 percent more colors than the current display industry standard.
The technology under development is called Li-Fi for light-based wireless communication, as opposed to the more prevailing Wi-fi,
using radio waves. Li-Fi could be more than 10 times faster than current Wi-fi and white laser Li-Fi could be 10 to 100 times faster than LED based Li-Fi currently still under development. he concept of white lasers first seems counterintuitive
because the light from a typical laser contains exactly one color, a specific wavelength of the electromagnetic spectrum, rather than a broad-range of different wavelengths.
White light is viewed typically as a complete mixture of all of the wavelengths of the visible spectrum, said Ning,
those independent lasers cannot be used for room lighting or in displays, Ning said. single tiny piece of semiconductor material emitting laser light in all colors
are used widely for computer chips or for light generation in telecommunication systems. They have interesting optical properties
the world of computing will undergo a revolution of sophistication, speed and energy efficiency that will make even our beefiest conventional machines seem like Stone age clunkers by comparison.
But, before that happens, quantum physicists like the ones in UC Santa barbara's physics professor John Martinis'lab will have to create circuitry that takes advantage of the marvelous computing prowess promised by the quantum bit("qubit),
"Unlike classical computing, in which the computer bits exist on one of two binary("yes/no,
(if any)--as opposed to the duplication of the original information that is part of the process of error detection in classical computing.
This development represents a meeting of the best in the science behind the physical and the theoretical in quantum computing--the latest in qubit stabilization and advances in the algorithms behind the logic of quantum computing."

#New technology may double radio frequency data capacity: Columbia engineers invent nanoscale IC that enables simultaneous transmission
networks can effectively double the frequency spectrum resources available for devices like smartphones and tablets."
Today's standards, such as 4G LTE, already support 40 different frequency bands, and there is no space left at radio frequencies for future expansion.
At the same time, the grand challenge of the next-generation 5g network is to increase the data capacity by 1, 000 times.
So the ability to have a transmitter and receiver reuse the same frequency has the potential to immediately double the data capacity of today's networks.
and bring this functionality to handheld devices such as cellular handsets, mobile devices such as tablets for Wifi,
and in cellular and Wifi base stations to support full duplex communications.""The biggest challenge the team faced with full duplex was canceling the transmitter's echo.

Utah engineers take big step toward much faster computers The Utah engineers have developed an ultracompact beamsplitter--the smallest on record--for dividing light waves into two separate channels of information.
Electrical and computer engineering associate professor Rajesh Menon and colleagues describe their invention today in the journal Nature Photonics.
Silicon photonics could significantly increase the power and speed of machines such as supercomputers, data center servers and the specialized computers that direct autonomous cars and drones with collision detection.
the technology could reach home computers and mobile devices and improve applications from gaming to video streaming."
"Light is the fastest thing you can use to transmit information, "says Menon.""But that information has to be converted to electrons
when it comes into your laptop. In that conversion, you're slowing things down. The vision is to do everything in light."
"Photons of light carry information over the Internet through fiber-optic networks. But once a data stream reaches a home or office destination,
the photons of light must be converted to electrons before a router or computer can handle the information.
That bottleneck could be eliminated if the data stream remained as light within computer processors.""With all light, computing can eventually be millions of times faster,
"says Menon. To help do that, the U engineers created a much smaller form of a polarization beamsplitter
(which looks somewhat like a barcode) on top of a silicon chip that can split guided incoming light into its two components.
Thanks to a new algorithm for designing the splitter, Menon's team has shrunk it to 2. 4 by 2. 4 microns,
mobile devices such as smartphones or tablets built with this technology would consume less power, have longer battery life
and generate less heat than existing mobile devices. The first supercomputers using silicon photonics--already under development at companies such as Intel
and IBM--will use hybrid processors that remain partly electronic. Menon believes his beamsplitter could be used in those computers in about three years.
Data centers that require faster connections between computers also could implement the technology soon, he says s
