Piezoelectric Material Helps Transistors Save Energy. Tom van Hemert and Ray Hueting of the University of Twente’s MESA+ Institute for Nanotechnologyhave found a way to “plug” leakage current in transistors by “squeezing” the transistor with a piezoelectric material.

Piezoelectric Material Helps Transistors Save Energy

This cuts the unnecessary energy losses, potentially increasing the battery life of portable electronic devices. If silicon is squeezed, this affects the freedom of movement of the electrons in this material. This can promote or restrict the flow of electrical current. This effect can be compared to a garden hose that is constricted so that that very little water comes out. Only with silicon, it’s the other way around: When the material is compressed, the flow of electrons in silicon actually increases. In modern microchips, every single transistor is continuously exposed to enormous pressures of up to 10,000 atmospheres. The underlying concept was originally developed by Ray Hueting.

Nikola Tesla (Serbian Cyrillic: Никола Тесла; 10 July 1856 – 7 January 1943) was a Serbian-American[3][4] inventor, electrical engineer, mechanical engineer, physicist, and futurist who is best known for his contributions to the design of the modern alternating current (AC) electricity supply system.[5] Born and raised in the Austrian Empire, Tesla received an advanced education in engineering and physics in the 1870s and gained practical experience in the early 1880s working in telephony and at Continental Edison in the new electric power industry.

Nikola Tesla

He emigrated to the United States in 1884, where he would become a naturalized citizen. He worked for a short time at the Edison Machine Works in New York City before he struck out on his own. With the help of partners to finance and market his ideas, Tesla set up laboratories and companies in New York to develop a range of electrical and mechanical devices.

Nikola Tesla The Theory Of Free Electrical Power

Electrical power carried as a result of the air to lgt up our houses and ability our vehicles. Plenty of power to mild up an in any other case spent fluorescent bulb. If this all appears to be just like the thirty-very first century, it is not. There could possibly be know-how obtainable today which will offer free of charge electrical power to absolutely everyone. When electrical power was initially found there were proponents of equally the direct existing transmission plus the alternating present-day transmission of energy.

Around the decades home electrical energy has become alternating present while cell apps such as cars and battery-powered machines have relied on immediate latest. Tesla had many theories that could supply electrical power on the globe. Tesla coils, when plugged into a 110 outlet, can yield ample electrical energy inside a property to energy gentle bulbs nearby. The Unknown Genius of Nikola Tesla english documentary part 2.

Clarke amongst others, may soon be put to practical use as a means to extend the flying time of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). A demonstration of "laser power beaming" by Lockheed Martin and LaserMotive has proved that a laser situated on the ground could act as an energy source for an operational UAV in flight, and recharge its on-board power cells. In an indoor flight test held in a wind tunnel, the companies used a laser to extend the flight time of a modified Lockheed Martin Stalker UAV to more than 48 hours. Nikola Tesla TED Talks.

Some think he is trying to signal Mars; others think that he has evolved a new system of communication by electricity through the air without wires; still others believe that he has another station off in China or Siberia, and is trying to communicate with it by electrical currents through the earth.

Amazingly we still do not know. We know what it is, just not why. Can the Internet build Nikola Tesla a museum? Talk about an electric fundraising effort: This week Matthew Inman, the guy behind the comic website The Oatmeal, launched an online campaign to raise money to buy Nikola Tesla's last laboratory and turn it into a museum.

Can the Internet build Nikola Tesla a museum?

In less than 48 hours the campaign had raised more than half a million dollars, $400,000 of which was donated in the first 20 hours. That may sound kind of insane. Then again, everything that has to do with Nikola Tesla is kind of insane. This is the man credited with inventing AC electric current, fluorescent and neon lighting, wireless telegraphy, radio tubes and improved turbine engines, among many other crazily futuristic things -- all at the turn of the 20th century.

Looks Like Nikola Tesla Will Get His Museum After All - Technology. Nikola Tesla may be vindicated at last. Last week we told you about an Indiegogo effort to resurrect his dilapidated lab, the Wardenclyffe Tower, as the first Tesla Museum in the United States (Thanks to reader MYPLACETOBEME for pointing out that Belgrade already has one). With 37 days to go and the money still coming in, the Tesla Museum campaign has topped its $1 million goal. Jane Alcorn, head of the nonprofit behind the museum, seems baffled by the enthusiasm, according to NPR: Alcorn and her friends were glued to their computers day and night, watching the numbers go up and up on a fundraising site. There's been over 20,000 contributors from more than a hundred countries. Why The Nikola Tesla Museum Is A Great Idea.

The Life Story of NIKOLA TESLA. You know it’s funny, but for some reason I’ve been fascinated by Nikola Tesla arcana recently. I don’t know what it was, but I rented the (really dark and pretty disturbing) Christopher Nolan film The Prestige the other week, just to watch the parts where one character travels from England to Colorado Springs to talk to Tesla – awesomely played by David Bowie, I might add, and with his assistant being played by Andy Serkis (live and in person with no Golum CGI!). Tesla was, to put it mildly, a towering genius, and decades ahead of his time. He was crushed down by Big Business (with a big help from Thomas Edison), but that didn’t stop many of his ideas (e.g. alternating current) from being adopted. Tesla's Revenge: Filmmakers Kickstart Electrifying Docudrama About Cult Genius.

Now the Los Angeles-based engineer and entrepreneur wants to pay homage to his role model by making a docudrama about the eccentric Serbian-American inventor. Cashen’s film project Electricity: The Story and Life of Nikola Tesla, which is currently up for funding through Kickstarter, would help educate mainstream audiences about the brilliant scientist whose system for distributing free wireless electricity got squashed by established business interests led by Thomas Edison.

An engineer whose contributions match (or arguably, exceed) the likes of Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Edison and Albert Einstein, Tesla is the man behind technologies like electricity, radio and radar. But somehow, his name was left out of our lexicon of great American scientists. Now, 69 years after his death, he is finally getting the attention he deserves. Haarp/Tesla -- Inosphere To Sun Re-Connection. Christian Bale and Nicolas Cage in Talks for Nikola Tesla Biopic.

As a true supergenius who revolutionized electricity and died as a penniless recluse, the life of Nikola Tesla is so cinematic that I long for the definitive biopic. If I can trust a recent report from Wild Rooster [via Bleeding Cool], that movie is on its way. The report suggests Christian Bale and Nicolas Cage are in talks to play Tesla and Thomas Edison, respectively, in Tesla, Ruler of the World.

Nikola Tesla - ROTATING MAGNETIC FIELD. An Electrifying Biotechnology - A Shot at Shocking Profits. Fascination with the effects of electricity on the body goes back — way back. In the 1770s Italian physician and physicist Luigi Galvani shocked the world with the discovery that a spark could cause a dead frog’s legs to twitch. In 1802, German chemist Johann Wilhelm Ritter furthered Galvani’s research into electrophysiology. He observed how halting a strong current in muscle nerves could cause a muscle to contract. Electricity as a medical therapy became a high-voltage field of interest.

By the late 1800s, scientific literature described how electrical pulses could kill bacteria in river water or change the shape and color of red blood cells. Geek of the Week: Apptio’s Bruce Henry, from nuclear physics to enterprise software.
