Scientists from Higher school of economics and the Federal Scientific Research Centre 'Crystallography and Photonics' have synthesized multi-layered nanowires in order to study their magnetoresistance properties. Improving this effect will allow scientists to increase the accuracy of indicators of various measuring instruments, such as compasses and radiation monitors. The results of the study have been published in the paper 'Structure of Cu/Ni Nanowires Obtained by Matrix Synthesis.' One of the unique features of artificial nanostructures is the giant magnetoresistance effect in thin layers of metal. This effect is exploited in various electronic devices. The scientists synthesized multi-layered copper and nickel nanowires, in order to study their characteristics, which depend on the layers' composition and geometry. 'We expect that the transition to multi-layered nanowires will increase the giant magnetoresistance effect considerably. Today, we are 'choosing' the method of nanowire … [Read more...] about Researchers Use Nanotechnology to Improve the Accuracy of Measuring Devices

Unit of Thai telco True says customers’ data leakage fixed
BANGKOK (Reuters) - Thailand’s iTruemart, a unit of mobile phone operator True Corp Plc, said on Saturday it has fixed a data leak that led to information on some of its customers, including their ID and passport data, becoming public. The files of customers buying “TrueMove H” mobile packages had been ‘hacked’, it said in a statement following reports of the leak. It was the first known instance of a major data leak from a mobile operator in Thailand. Niall Merrigan, a Norway-based security researcher, detailed on his personal blog on Friday that he was able to access 32 gigabytes of True’s customer data, including identification cards and passports. Merrigan told Reuters the data was “public facing” and that he notified True of the leak in March. The company said it would alert the customers affected by the hacking on measures it is taking to protect their data. It did not say how many customers or data files had been … [Read more...] about Unit of Thai telco True says customers’ data leakage fixed
Flib is a simple, elegant, smart unit converter app for Android
If you're an engineer, a science student, or just a DIY enthusiast kind of guy, then you probably have to deal with unit conversion more often than the average Joe. And if that's the case, then we have a tool that's surely going to grab your attention. Flib, as it is called, is a fast and simple unit converter for Android smartphones and tablets. It is capable of converting dozens of different units of measure across categories like speed, area, volume, pressure, energy, power, mass, and more. But Flib isn't only functional. The app is very pleasant to look at thanks to its elegant user interface that's spiced up with smooth, unobtrusive animations. Also, there are twelve color schemes to pick from.Of course, Flib is far from the only unit converter app available for download. It does, however, have a trick up its sleeve that sets it apart from the rest. The app automatically rearranges the unit categories depending on how often they're accessed. In other words, Flib intelligently … [Read more...] about Flib is a simple, elegant, smart unit converter app for Android
