Transparent transistors to bring future displays, 'e-paper'

Researchers have used nanotechnology to create transparent transistors and circuits, a step that promises a broad range of applications, from e-paper and flexible color screens for consumer electronics to "smart cards" and "heads-up" displays in auto windshields.

The transistors are made of single "nanowires," or tiny cylindrical structures that were assembled on glass or thin films of flexible plastic.

"The nanowires themselves are transparent, the contacts we put on them are transparent and the glass or plastic substrate is transparent," said David Janes, a researcher at Purdue University's Birck Nanotechnology Center and a professor in the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering.

Bridging the Vista Graphics Gap

Graphics performance, which has long been an afterthought for most corporate PCs and many consumers, will move to the forefront with the launch of Windows Vista, Microsoft's next Windows operating system.

Vi sta, due late next year, will offer four different themes, including the well-publicized three-dimensional Aero Glass with transparent windows.

Starting with a Classic theme, which looks like Windows XP, each will offer successively more advanced features, also call for successively more powerful graphics.

Vista is expected to measure the graphics grunt available in a PC and automatically serve up the proper UI.

But what's still unclear is where many of today's PCs will fall on the Vista interface spectrum and thus how consumers and corporate buyers who wish to gain the most advanced features can get prepared. ..

Scientists construct a transparent plastic that's stronger, lighter than steel

Transparent aluminum has been the dream of many ever since it was first mentioned in a popular Sci-Fi movie a couple decades back. But researchers at the University of Michigan may have done that one better. It could almost be called "transparent steel".



Scientists began with a desire to take the extremely strong nanostructures, like nanotubes, nanorods and nanosheets found at micro levels, and then build something big and usable with it. But each time they tried the strength was not carried forward into the bigger structures. There was always something making the end product quite flimsy in comparison to the strength shown at the nanoscale.



However, scientists have now overcome that difficulty with a product based on what they're calling "the velcro effect." This new polymer and glue sets up a series of hydrogen bonds between layers which, if broken, can be easily connected to other nearby locations automatically. This makes it like velcro in that if it's separated, it can be rejoined and it will be as strong as it originally was. As the materials flex and bend this bond reformation happens continuously.
