Next Generation electronic devices could be on the nano-scale
Developed by researchers at University of Arkansas at Little Rock (UALR), US, the discovery could break the scientific bottleneck keeping electronic devices from shrinking to the nanoscale.
According to Dr. Wei Zhao, professor in UALR's Department of Chemistry in the College of Science and Math, semi-conducting single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) with diameter of about one nanometer have attracted the most attention as a new generation material - a possible replacement for silicon for nanoelectronics.
So far, scientists had been unable produce this uniform type of nanotubes that the nano electronic systems would need.
But, the UALR team found a way.
"Our current work combines selective growth of a few nanotubes with chromatographic separation to achieve near single type purity nanotube production - a big step toward the SWNT applications," said Zhao.
"The semiconductor industry has been improving the performance of electronic systems for more than four decades by making ever-smaller devices down to nanometer scale. However, this approach will soon encounter both scientific and technical limits," he added.
According to Dr. Michael Gealt, dean of the College of Science and Mathematics at UALR, the availability of pure single-wall nanotubes will also greatly enhance the creation of new products useful for the consumer.
"Dr. Zhao's technique promises to provide industry with a critical starting material for development of manufactured goods with greater electrical efficiency, thereby helping to conserve electricity while making products that work better," he said. (ANI)
Ponting ruled out of Twenty20 clash with back injury

Australia captain Ricky Ponting has been ruled out of Friday's Twenty20 clash against India with a back injury, Australia coach Tim Nielsen said.
Batsman Michael Clarke, who deputised for Ponting in a Twenty20 match against New Zealand last year, will lead the side at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.
Ponting was troubled by pain and stiffness in the lower back during the fourth test against India in Adelaide this week.
"He pulled up pretty sore this morning," Nielsen told reporters on Friday. "His back is just not 100 percent.
"With the uncertain nature of Twenty20 cricket and the frantic nature of it we're just a bit concerned that if he has to dive in the first over if we're fielding and pulls up very sore it could leave us one short."
Brad Hodge will bat at number three for Australia with batsman David Hussey set to make his debut.

Interviewer said "I shall either ask you ten easy questions or one really difficult question.Think well before you make up your mind!" The boy thought for a while and said, "my choice is one really difficult question."
"Well, good luck to you, you have made your own choice! Now tell me this. "What comes first, Day or Night?"
The boy was jolted into reality as his admission depends on the correctness of his answer,but he thought for a while and said,"It's the DAY sir!"
"How" the interviewer asked,
"Sorry sir, you promised me that you will not ask me a SECOND difficult question!"
He was selected for IIM!
Incredible !!!
Count every "F" in the following text:
FINISHED FILES ARE THE RE
SULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTI
FIC STUDY COMBINED WITH
THE EXPERIENCE OF YEARS...
(SEE BELOW)
HOW MANY ?
...................... 3?
WRONG, THERE ARE 6 -- no joke.
READ IT AGAIN !
The reasoning behind is further down.
The brain cannot process "OF".
Incredible or what? Go back and look again!!
Anyone who counts all 6 "F's" on the first go is a genius.
Three is normal, four is quite rare.
