In a neighboring village women cooked circuit boards curbside in woks and children played atop ash heaps.

Villagers explained that Guiyu now specialized in recycling electronics or e-waste and that truckloads arrived around the clock from the port city of Nanhai five hours away.

Others acid-stripped circuit boards in caustic baths near the river to salvage bits of gold. No one wore protective clothing.

Puckett estimated that just more than half of the material processed in Guiyu actually got recycled judging from the tons of plastic leaded glass and burned circuit boards discarded near waterways and in open fields.

Puckett works for Basel Action Network (BAN) a group that monitors the export of hazardous waste.

Among industrialized nations the U s. remains the only country without federal laws that mandate the domestic recycling of electronics and cars.

The team led by Rice chemist James Tour has built a 1-kilobit rewritable silicon oxide device with diodes that eliminate data-corrupting crosstalk.

The circuits require only two terminals instead of three as in most memory chips. The crossbar memories built by the Rice lab are flexible resist heat

The diodes eliminate crosstalk inherent in crossbar structures by keeping the electronic state on a cell from leaking into adjacent cells Tour said.

The silicon-palladium sandwiches rest upon a thin layer of aluminum that combines with a base layer of p-doped silicon to act as a diode.

The devices dubbed one diode-one resistor (1d-1r) worked especially well when compared with test versions (1r) that lacked the diode Wang said.

Using just the silicon oxide was not enough he said. In a (1r) crossbar structure with just the memory material if we made 1024 cells only about 63 cells would work individually.

From the engineering side of this integrating diodes into a 1k memory array is no small feat Tour said.

#2-D electronics take a step forward: Semiconducting films for atom-thick circuitsscientists at Rice university and Oak ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) have advanced on the goal of two-dimensional electronics with a method to control the growth of uniform atomic layers of molybdenum disulfide (MDS.

MDS a semiconductor is one of a trilogy of materials needed to make functioning 2-D electronic components.

They may someday be the basis for the manufacture of devices so small they would be invisible to the naked eye.

For truly atomic circuitry this is important Lou said. If we get this material to work then we will have a set of materials to play with for complete complicated devices.

But there was still a piece missing for the materials to be full partners in advanced electronic applications.

These are very different materials with different electronic properties and band gaps. Putting one on top of the other would give us a new type of material that we call Van der waals solids Ajayan said.

#Stitching defects into world s thinnest semiconductorin pioneering new research at Columbia University scientists have grown high-quality crystals of molybdenum disulfide (Mos2) the world's thinnest semiconductor

Through beautiful images of strikingly symmetric stars and triangles hundreds of microns across they have uncovered key insights into the optical and electronic properties of this new material

either conducting or insulating to form the basic on-off switch for all digital electronics. The study is published in the May 5 2013 issue of Nature Materials.

Our results will help develop ways to use this new material in atomically thin electronics that will become integral components of a whole new generation of revolutionary products such as flexible solar cells that conform to the body of a car.

Earlier work from Columbia demonstrated that monolayer Mos2 has an electronic structure distinct from the bulk form

which can be metals semiconductors dielectrics and even superconductors. This material is the newest in a growing family of two-dimensional crystals says Arend van der Zande a research fellow at the Columbia Energy Frontier Research center and one of the paper's three lead authors.

With the addition of the monolayer molybdenum disulfide and other metal dichalcogenides we have all the building blocks for modern electronics that must be created in atomically thin form.

To do this they built tiny transistors the most basic component in all of electronics out of the crystals

and saw that the single defective line of atoms at the grain boundaries could drastically change the key electronic and optical properties of the Mos2.

which enables us to integrate it into large-scale flexible electronics and solar cells. The crystal synthesis optical measurements electronic measurements and theory were performed all by research groups at Columbia Engineering.

The growth and electrical measurements were made by the Hone lab in mechanical engineering; the optical measurements were carried out in the Tony Heinz lab in physics.

The structural modeling and electronic structure calculations were performed by the David Reichman lab in chemistry.
