At the Georgia Tech School of Electrical and Computer Engineering professor Manos Tentzeris, a faculty researcher in the Georgia Electronic Design Center, is leading a team that’s discovered a way to capture and harness energy transmitted by such sources as radio and television transmitters, cell phone networks and satellite communications systems. Tentzeris explains, “There is […]

Spooked by the Chinese embargo of rare earth elements the rare earth mining industry is busily looking and investing in rare earth mineral extraction.  Several prospects look practical.  Meanwhile Japan’s Yasuhiro Kato, associate processor at the University of Tokyo’s Graduate School of Engineering is leading a research group that’s found widely distributed high-quality rare earth-rich […]

A project of three research groups at nanoGUNE at Donostia in San Sebastian, Spain, reports an innovative method to focus infrared light with tapered transmission lines to nanometer-size dimensions.  The key in that announcement is the method of transporting infrared energy by wire.  If the physics expressed in the paper work out to larger applications […]

Currently titanium oxide-based sunlight energized photo catalysis is the most efficient, yet poorly understood conversion process for hydrogen generation by water splitting using solar energy.  Making use of solar to process water to hydrogen is considered a major challenge and goal because it offers a direct sun to fuel solution. Scientists of the KIT Institute […]

The 4th of July, set as Independence Day, may be history’s top breakout for human beings.  By breakout, independence means breaking free of the yoke of government. History is replete with governments controlling people for the government systems’ own interests.  From kings tyrants and dictators of one person in power to collusions of many using […]
