Nanotech trick makes LED lighting more beautiful, useful | DVICE - 1 views

  • Smart dudes at Nanosys are figuring out a way to make the colors of LED lights more vivid, while using the same amount of energy as current LEDs. How are they accomplishing this feat? Why, they're using nanotechnology, of course. They slather this nano goop over blue LED lights, because that color is the most energy-efficient. This strange semiconductor material changes the colors of those LEDs, resulting in a rainbow of hues that look a whole lot brighter. Best of all, this nanotech can make the color rendering index (CRI) of warm white light look a lot more appealing. Bravo. Expect to see this tech on laptop displays, HDTV screens, and lighting fixtures by the end of this year.

Light Emitting Wallpaper to Replace Light Bulbs in 2012 | Dexigner - 1 views

  •  
    "Light Emitting Wallpaper to Replace Light Bulbs in 2012 Light Emitting Wallpaper to Replace Light Bulbs in 2012 A company developing ultra-efficient organic LED lighting technology has been awarded a £454k grant by the Carbon Trust. The OLED materials, being pioneered by LOMOX Ltd, have a wide variety of potential applications and when coated onto a film could be used to cover walls creating a light-emitting wallpaper which replaces the need for traditional light bulbs. As well as being flexible, OLED film will require a very low operating voltage (between 3 to 5 volts) so it can be powered by solar panels and batteries making it ideal for applications where mains power is not available such as roadside traffic warning signs."

IEEE Spectrum: Hydrocarbon Superconductor Discovered - 0 views

  •  
    "In a development that if independently confirmed could lead to an entirely new class of superconductors, a group of Japanese scientists-led by Professor Yoshihiro Kubozono of Okayama University-is reporting that a simple hydrocarbon, picene, exhibits superconductivity below 18 kelvin, a relatively high temperature. The Japanese team details its findings in this week's issue of Nature"
