The National Institute of Ocean Technology (NIOT) of India has finalised designs and submitted a detailed project report for an offshore desalination plant using low temperature thermal technology, reports New Indian Express.

Imec and Panasonic have developed a solid nanocomposite electrolyte for batteries with a lithium ion conductivity several times greater than its liquid equivalent. The ion conductivity already reaches several mS/cm at room temperature. Imec and Panasonic have set a goal to develop novel solid nanocomposite electrolyte materials towards 100mS/cm in the next few years, which …

Toshiba has expanded its line-up of MOSFETs based on its latest generation U-MOS-IX-H trench semiconductor process with a 40V device featuring an integrated soft recovery diode (SRD). Thanks to the integrated SRD, the TPH1R204PB is able to keep the spike voltages generated between the drain and source during switching very low. This makes the MOSFET …
