2026-01-06 Will Quantum Dots Double The Solar Efficiency?
“”Quantum dots are smashing the 33.7% solar efficiency wall with a theoretical potential of 66% to 80%. Unlike standard panels that generate one electron per photon, these “artificial atoms” use Multiple Exciton Generation (MEG) to trigger two or more. This breakthrough is fueling a market projected to skyrocket to $3.9 billion by 2035.”” POLARIS https://www.facebook.com/reel/888005373811370/?mibextid=9drbnH&s=yWDuG2&fs=e
2025-11-26 How Many Books Could EUV Photolithography Put On A Chip??
The $200 million EUV photolithography machine from ASML takes about 18 seconds to expose a wafer. It can put an incredible amount of information on the chips. You’ve got to see this – I found that number of books difficult to believe!! It’s mind blowing!! 🤯🤯🤯 They said all the Harry Potter books, all the

2025-09-18 Dr. Brian Cox Explains What The Problem Is With Traveling Near The Speed Of Light
Dr. Brian Cox explains what the problem is with traveling near the speed of light. From the traveler’s perspective the distances shrink. The protons travel around the LHC – Large Hadron Collider at CERN, a circumference of 27 kilometers. But due the protons traveling around it at 99.999999% the speed of light, distances shrink by

2025-08-12 How To Turn Mercury Into Gold
Marathon Fusion will add mercury-198 to the blanket in the fusion reactor. “”When a fast neutron hits a mercury-198 atom it absorbs it and releases two more neutrons in its place in an N-2N Reaction, producing mercury-197. Mercury-197 is an unstable isotope that undergoes Beta minus decay. Over roughly 64 hours one of its neutrons transforms

2025-06-08 Nuclear is Not The Solution: The Folly Of Atomic Power In The Age Of Climate Change By MV Ramana
A quote from The Guardian article: “Sun turns nuclear energy from its core into the energy of sunlight,” the physicist Keith Barnham wrote in 2014. This means, the author Richard Seymour writes, “the question is whether, instead of building nuclear reactors on Earth, we can rely on the nuclear fusion reactor at the core of
