Graphene-based memory eyed by researchers to replace flash
A research team at Rice University led by James Tour with Yubao Li and Alexander Sinitskii have discovered that memory cells created by graphene (thin sheets of graphite) can be 5x as dense while requiring significantly less power to operate. In addition, the lab has already experimented with up to 20K cycles and there was “no discernable degradation.”

Obama promised 5 million new green collar jobs, Duke shows us the way
Researchers at Duke University have been looking into the economic plan proposed by Barack Obama during his presidential campaign. Obama proposed creating 5 million new jobs in the environmental industries. Duke University researchers have taken his lead and determined exactly what new “green collar” jobs might be feasible. All of them fall into the area of a lower-carbon economy.
