Can Only Men Get Kidney Stones

Technologies, touchscreen

U.S. Engineers have the first touch screen manufactured with nanotechnology.

A group of American engineers has created the first touch screen made of nanotubes, which could have applications in improving quality and access in some screens and even opens the possibility of such developments, for example, the windshield of a car.

addition, these researchers have discovered a new way to fabricate nanotech-based electronics via a simple process of the previously used and that would lower costs to make this system fully competitive level of commercial construction.

Small structures that allow the proper functioning of the touch screens created by this group of engineers can be applied in thin glass or plastic. Researchers have used carbon nanotubes to create an alternative to the usual pixels used in this type of system for the construction of television screens, computer or other electronic components.

"It is a further step in demonstrating the practical potential of nanotubes in other applications," said David Janes, a member of the Birck Nanotechnology Center at Purdue University in the United States, one of three schools Participants in the project. The report, detailed in the journal Nano Letters, also details a new way to make this technology at room temperature to enhance business applications and enabling touch screens appear in new places unthinkable today. New applications



According to the researcher at the Institute of Arts and Sciences at Northwestern Tobin J. Weinberg Marks, nanotechnology could provide a low cost method of production for "many applications." Moreover, according to Janes, "a unique aspect of these samples is that they are transparent," thanks to the nanotubes, possible substitutes Silicon as a product to be applied in transparent circuits.

"applications such as browsers could allow GPS on the windshield of the car," said Janes, who already speaks of these first tests provide a quality similar to that vision may be received from an LCD TV. In automotive applications, for example, allow the driver to contemplate your route and options without taking his eyes off the road.
