"Fifty years ago today, on December 29, 2009, Richard P. Feynman gave an after-dinner talk in Pasadena at an annual post-Christmas meeting of the American Physical Society. Here is how Ed Regis describes the setting of the lecture in his rollicking book Nano: In the banquet room [at the Huntington-Sheraton hotel in Pasadena], a giddy mood prevails. Feynman, although not yet the celebrity physicist he'd soon become, was already famous among his peers not only for having coinvented quantum electrodynamics, for which he'd later share the Nobel Prize, but also for his ribald wit, his clownishness, and his practical jokes. He was a regular good-time guy, and his announced topic for tonight was "There's Plenty of Room at the Bottom" - whatever that meant. "He had the world of young physicists absolutely terrorized because nobody knew what that title meant," said physicist Donald Glaser. "Feynman didn't tell anybody and refused to discuss it, but the young physicists looked at the title 'There's Plenty of Room at the Bottom' and they th"

The results of the test showed that light penetrating the blocked device efficiently yielded current from all three energy bands - valence to intermediate, intermediate to conduction, and valence to conduction - and responded strongly to all parts of the spectrum, from infrared with an energy of about 1.1 electron volts (1.1 eV), to over 3.2 eV, well into the ultraviolet.

The new luminous materials, or phosphors, could improve upon current organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) and solid-state lighting. Bright, low-power OLEDs are used in some small screens on cell phones or cameras. At this time, they aren't practical for use in larger displays because of material costs and manufacturing issues.

"My goal is to make quantum communication devices very practical," said Prem Kumar, AT&T Professor of Information Technology in the McCormick School of Engineering and Applied Science and senior author of the paper. "We work in fiber optics so that as quantum communication matures it can easily be integrated into the existing telecommunication infrastructure."

The latest improvements have resulted in a nanogenerator powerful enough to drive commercial liquid-crystal displays, light-emitting diodes and laser diodes. By storing the generated charges using a capacitor, the output power is capable to periodically drive a sensor and transmit the signal wirelessly.

An experimental device made from layered filter paper is helping Rice University bioengineers study calcifying heart diseases. The filter paper is structured in a way that mimics the layering of aortic heart valves, recreating the means by which cells spread through cardiac tissue in a laboratory setting. It may not look much like a heart valve, but in practice it simulates the proliferation process in the same way.

ALIS augments logistics activities from end to end and it can extend human efficiency in terms of accessibility, quality and rapidness.

Contactless payments are one of the emerging forms of digital payment technologies that allow consumers to pay for goods and services by using credit or debit cards. The primary technology used in contactless payment is RFRID i.e. radiofrequency identification also known as chip cards. Consumers do not have to swipe the card or enter personal identification number i.e. PIN, in order to commence the transaction. These types of payment systems often installed at point-of-sale terminals with a Wi-Fi-like logo though turned onto its side. The credit card industry is facing a transition period as it adjusts to new technology. As more people are using their debit cards and using contactless payments on the internet, credit card issuers are facing tough questions from consumers about their business practices. Some merchants will not accept contactless payments or charge high transaction fees for consumers who use such cards at their business locations. Others will charge consumers additional processing fees for accepting credit cards over their magnetic stripe cards. Market Drivers Growing penetration of smartphones in South America and Asia Pacific is expected to drive growth of the contactless payments market during the forecast period. According to the Indian Cellular and Electronics Association, India's smartphone base is expected to reach 820 million by 2022. According to the same source, rural part of India witnessed around 35% year-on-year growth in smartphone penetration, while 7% growth in urban parts. Such high penetration of smartphones has led to increase in contactless payments. Hence, such factors are expected to drive growth of the contactless payments market during the forecast period. Moreover, increasing demand for biometric contactless smart cards in developed countries is expected to propel the contactless payments market growth over the forecast period. Market Restraint High cost of development and lack of consumer awareness is expected to hinder t

Hard surface flooring has a lot of advantages over other forms of flooring. These floors are often more durable and less likely to need replacement than other types of flooring. Durability is one of the most significant advantages of hard flooring. Except for vinyl, tile, and linoleum, hard surface flooring refers to practically any material that is not vinyl, tile, or linoleum. In the majority of circumstances, some of these materials are more durable than others, while others are less durable. Vinyl flooring, for example, can only take specific stresses, such as being dropped on their sides or being walked on by a medium-sized dog.
