Press releases 1 - 8 of 8 Press ReleasesDec 29, 2011 Maxwell’s equations in near-field heat transfer for the tunneling of evanescent waves through nanoscale gaps are invalid as temperature fluctuations of surface atoms required by the fluctuation-dissipation theorem are negated by quantum mechanics Oct 11, 2011 The 2011 Nobel Prize in Physics based on calculations using the redshift from Supernovae that showed the Universe is expanding at an accelerated rate was a mistake because the redshift was caused by absorption in cosmic dust Sep 27, 2011 Quantum mechanics requires nano-thermometers to be in contact with the cell to obtain valid measurements of temperature Sep 08, 2011 The Ovshinsky Effect where small voltages applied to high resistance submicron films significantly reduces their resistance is explained by quantum mechanics. Aug 31, 2011 Quantum mechanics in conserving Joule heat by creating excitons thereby reducing the resistance of memristors is supported by numerical simulations of HP memristor switching at 5 kHz Aug 18, 2011 Thermal energy absorbed by pigment molecules during intermittent non-bonded contact with rhodopsin receptors is conserved by QED induced emission of its EM spectrum thereby assisting the excitation of pigments at VIS levels under dark conditions Jul 15, 2011 GALEX spectroscopy of galaxies showing cosmic dust produces wavelength dependent luminosities from Lyman alpha emissions is proof positive the Universe is static and not expanding. Jun 30, 2011 Thermal transport by QED radiation based on the creation of photons in nanostructures upon the absorption of EM energy is shown to supersede phonon based Non-Equilibrium Green’s Function |
