Thinner wires in the Tablet world future

PThe thickness of only three atoms to produce tablets and TV screens so that roll.BRThe study, conducted by a group of researchers at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee and coordinated by Junhao Lin, was published in nature nanotechnology.BRUsing a scanning electron microscope, researchers using an electron beam, have created smaller wires has done before. These threads with a thickness of only three atoms are composed of semiconductor materials such as molybdenum or tungsten combined with sulfur or selenium, metals have a predisposition to form a composite of a few atoms thick. There are also materials that possess different qualities like strength, flexibility, transparency and electrons high mobility or conductivity. These small, flexible cables can be used as wires to connect transistors, resistors and diodes inside the integrated circuits. Also known as microchips, these chips are electronic components that contain more miniaturized circuits such as computer processors. Sometimes smaller than a fingernail chips can contain more than 30 km of copper cables that someday be replaced by Nanowires that are smaller than a thousand times.BRAccording to the researchers, this technology represents an exciting new way of manipulating matter at nanometer scale and should be given a strong boost to efforts to create electronic circuits consists of Atomic Monolayers that are more subtle form possible solid objects. According to Lin, this research will stimulate interest in designing systems single-ply as it may apply to any electronic tool. “It is too early to predict what types of applications can be produced – commented Sokrates Pantelides who participated in the study – but if you your imagination, you imagine tablets and screens of television so thin as to be released before storing them in the pocket or small bags of”.BRInterest in materials monatomic had already developed in 2004 when it was discovered that the Graphene also consists of a thin layer of carbon atoms in the shape of a honeycomb.BRDespite its excellent properties but showed the limits of Graphene in its applicability in electronic devices./P
