A Clue to Making Electric Power Without Energy
January 6, 2016 | Leave a Comment
Researchers at Hiroshima University have identified the requirements for the development of new types of extremely low power consumption electric devices. The team is studying thin films made of Chromium-doped (Antimony, Bismuth)2Tellurium3 (Cr-doped (Sb, Bi)2Te3) at extremely low temperatures where an electric current flows around the edge of the film without energy loss owing to […]
