Phone Charge in a few seconds !!

The phone load power at least once a week and for a few seconds. This dream can become reality thanks to flexible condensates created by nanotechnology experts at the University of Central Florida.

These devices are capable of quickly Suhm feed energy compared with traditional lithium batteries having durability for over 30 thousand cycles phone food. This is said in the journal ACS Nano, and it could revolutionize technology for electric cars.

The secret of these condensates based on new two-dimensional materials with the thickness of an atom. Many research groups have tried in the past to use these kinds of materials, such as graphite, but asksush failed to use their potential.

American group led by Yeonwoong "Eric" Jung has won this technological challenge using chemical synthesis, realizing condensing thread composed of millions of microscopic Reclothed two-dimensional material.

In this way, the "heart" with high conductivity facilitates the transfer of electrons to speed feeding of the phone, while repairing with new nanomaterials has a higher density of energy and power.

But the advantages do not end here: if lithium an ordinary smartphone begin to provide food problems after 1500 cycles, these super condensers retain viability for over 30 thousand cycles.

The production process of these devices, which will soon get a patent, "is not yet ready for trading," but represents an important proof in principle. Our study proves a powerful impact that will have more technology, "says Jung.

ONE DAY THE GUNK ON YOUR PHONE MIGHT HELP PUT YOU IN JAIL

It’s not just your cell phone that contains tons of information about you. The grime of daily life that coats it – that all-too-familiar greasy gunk – is basically just another unflattering selfie.

You know that sheen of goo on your phone screen? Don’t act all disgusted. You know that wiping your phone on your jeans isn’t exactly a rigorous sanitation procedure. Turns out, that gunk can tell scientists a lot about your life and habits.

In a recent study researchers took swabs of the hands and phones of 39 volunteers. Just by analyzing the samples in a mass spectrometer (a machine that sorts and identifies chemicals) the researchers were able to identify various lifestyle aspects of the volunteers.

For example, they figured out that one participant spends a lot of time outdoors due to the presence of sunscreen components and DEET in their samples. They were also able to positively identify cosmetics like anti-aging creams, prescription treatments like antidepressants and hair regrowth treatments, and even flavor preferences based on trace amounts of spicy compounds or herbs and seasonings.

If it sounds like something straight out of CSI or NCIS there’s a reason for that. The study was supported in part by the National Institute of Justice, a branch of the Department of Justice. As the authors write in the paper, criminologists might be interested in using the method to track suspects or tie them to crime scenes, and it may also prove useful for people monitoring terrorist groups. But that isn’t the only possible application. These methods could also be used to measure your environmental exposure to pollutants over time or in a particular area.

But there is a catch. In order for the gunk on your phone to be useful in identifying where you’ve been or what you get up to, there has to be a database in place that can identify all the different signatures left by lotions, foods, and all the other chemicals we come into contact with on a daily basis. As the authors note: “Currently, such a database does not exist and it will take significant community effort akin to the level of fingerprint databases.”
