A new kind of thermoelectric system can harness small energy differences at low temperatures

University of Tsukuba-based researchers make a battery driven by differences in temperature and capable of recovering background heat energy slightly at above room temperature Every time we convert energy from one form to another, part of that energy is lost in the form of heat. Trying to efficiently get that energy back is very difficult

A switch for light wave electronics

A team of scientists optimized the interaction of light and glass in a way that facilitates its possible future usage for light wave driven electronics. Light waves might be able to drive future transistors. The electromagnetic waves of light oscillate approximately one million times in a billionth of a second, hence with petahertz frequencies. In

Tsukuba scientists reverse aging in human cell lines and give theory of aging a new lease of life

If proven, it could result in glycine supplements giving our older population a new lease of life. Can the process of aging be delayed or even reversed? Research led by specially appointed Professor Jun-Ichi Hayashi from the University of Tsukuba in Japan has shown that, in human cell lines at least, it can. They also found that the
