Improving the performance of high-power electronics

MIT researchers have demonstrated a low-cost design of specialized electronic nozzles, called triaxial electrospray emitters (pictured here), that could be used to manufacture time-release drug-delivery particles or self-healing materials.

Ferveret’s cooling system submerges computer servers in a specialized liquid that absorbs heat much more efficiently than air from a fan. What makes the solution different from other liquid cooling systems are smaller bubbles at the surface of the server, which detach more frequently, accelerating the heat transfer process.
