| Posted: 19 Apr 2012 09:15 AM PDT The boundary between electronics and biology is blurring with the first detection of ferroelectric properties in an amino acid called glycine.  |
| Solar cell that also shines: Luminescent 'LED-type' design breaks efficiency record Posted: 19 Apr 2012 08:30 AM PDT To produce the maximum amount of energy, solar cells are designed to absorb as much light from the sun as possible. Now researchers have suggested -- and demonstrated -- a counter-intuitive concept: solar cells should be designed to be more like LEDs, able to emit light as well as absorb it.  |
| Rivers flowing into the sea offer vast potential as electricity source Posted: 18 Apr 2012 10:51 AM PDT A new genre of electric power-generating stations could supply electricity for more than a half billion people by tapping just one-tenth of the global potential of a little-known energy source that exists where rivers flow into the ocean, a new analysis has concluded. The process requires no fuel, is sustainable and releases no carbon dioxide (the main greenhouse gas).  |
