Enlightening and flexing memories
نویسنده
چکیده
by Professor Stefan Hecht, who is a member of IRIS Adlershof, in collaboration with the University of Strasbourg & CNRS (France) and the University of Nova Gorica (Slovenia), have shown that a carefully chosen blend of a small photoswitchable molecule and a semiconducting polymer can be used to fabricate high-performance memory devices that can be written and erased by light. Such multilevel (8-bit) optical memories have also been implemented on flexible substrates, paving the way to applications in wearable electronics, E-papers, and smart devices. These results have been published in Nature Nanotechnology.

Biosystematics of larval movement of Central American mosquitoes and its use for field identification.
Means of locomotion of 48 species of larval mosquitoes was observed using cinematography in Panama, Honduras and neotropical Mexico. General observation led to a classification of movement into path, frequency, position and mechanism. Examination of high speed film sequences (64 frames per second) revealed that all species use the same basic mechanism of flexing, which consists of a power and a...
متن کاملENVI: Elastic resource flexing for Network function Virtualization
Dynamic and elastic resource allocation to Virtual Network Functions (VNFs) in accordance with varying workloads is a must for realizing promised reductions in capital and operational expenses in Network Functions Virtualization (NFV). However, workload heterogeneity and complex relationships between resources allocated to a VNF and the resulting capacity makes elastic resource flexing a challe...
متن کاملMeasurements of nanoscale domain wall flexing in a ferromagnetic thin film.
We use the high spatial sensitivity of the anomalous Hall effect in the ferromagnetic semiconductor Ga(1-x)Mn(x)As, combined with the magneto-optical Kerr effect, to probe the nanoscale elastic flexing behavior of a single magnetic domain wall in a ferromagnetic thin film. Our technique allows position sensitive characterization of the pinning site density, which we estimate to be ∼10(14) cm(-3...
متن کاملThe effects of air flow and stem flexure on the mechanical and hydraulic properties of the stems of sunflowers Helianthus annuus L.
Many studies have shown that wind affects plant development, causing them to develop shorter and usually stronger stems. Many of these effects have been shown to be due to a response to mechanical flexing of the stem which is known as thigmomorphogenesis. However, it is not known how wind affects the hydraulic properties of stems, nor have the effects of air flow past leaves been examined in is...
متن کاملForming a unique identity derived from cultural values hidden in the collective memories of citizens
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The city is not just about appearance. People are present and live with architectural and urban spaces. The changes of Bojnord city after becoming the provincial capital have had many and sometimes destructive effects on the city. The issue of bad identity of cities is not a new one, but how to deal with it, despite the history of the problem, is stil...
