Aonex technologies, the daughterly company of corporation arrowhead research, concluded agreement about the collaboration with company kyma technologies, which specializes in the carrying out of semiconductor production. The object of the agreement is the materials, which will make possible to reduce the cost of instruments, built with the use of nitride of gallium (GaN). The discussion deals with the so-called dark-blue laser diodes and light-emitting diodes. Dark-blue lasers is the key element of devices, intended for the work with the optical disk from new generation: HD-DVD and Blu-ray. Series output of these semiconductor devices proved to be nontrivial task and became the reason for delay release such products as, for example, the console sony playStation 3. As far as the light-emitting diodes of the dark-blue color glow are concerned, they are the popular sources of illumination in a enormous quantity of consumer electronics. Moreover, in the opinion the authors in the official press release, during one excellent day they can replace customary incandescent lamps and luminescent luminous sources, since they have higher efficiency and longevity. On the conditions of collaboration, Aonex will grant Kyma the access to technology of its own development A -Sapph, which makes possible to make the plates of large area, which be suitable for the production of GaN- instruments. As it is asserted, the use of plates with large area can noticeably influence the price of GaN- instruments to the side of its decrease, since a larger quantity of product will be made from one plate. Plate A -Sapph consists of the hyperfine crystal sapphire (with thickness of less than 500 nm) aluminum fastened to the base layer from polycrystalline nitride. The resulting construction has a coefficient of thermal expansion the practically identical volume, which has GaN. This, and also the high thermal conductivity plate (in comparison with the crystals of sapphire larger thickness), it makes possible to substantially increase the quality of production, to increase the percentage of release for suitable instruments. dark-blue laser diodes	Add Comment ( 0 ) DARK-BLUE LASER DIODES

POSTER: computer news   ||   SAMSUNG MULTIPLY EFFORTS IN NOR PRODUCTION	DATE:2007-02-26
The company samsung electronics, even now entering the five of the quite important in the world suppliers of flash- memory of type NOR, decided to multiply the efforts, directed toward the seizure of this market. It is earlier, South Korean electronic giant ensured with memory of type NOR only its most significant customers. Furthermore, this memory was supplied in the composition of multicrystal product. It is decided to change situation: as the saying goes in the official press release, company proposes the complete assortment of flsh- memory NOR with density from 16 to 512 Mbit to all interested parties. The in the beginning present year, the company samsung strengthened strategy of business, connected with the production and deliveries to flash- memory, after enlarging the proposal of flash- memory of type NOR in all segments market, including net equipment, cell phones and other devices of consumer electronics. Production calendar plans were reviewed in such a way as to increase turnover and to increase reaction rate to consumer needs of memory NOR, in the first turn, on the market for cell phones. Let us recall, Samsung is the most important in the world producer of flash- memory of another type  NAND. As far as NOR is concerned, here leads the company spansion, which recently made room from the first place the company intel. Besides two the companies indicated and Samsung, into the five of the most important suppliers of flash- memory of type NOR enter the companies sTMicroelectronics and Silicon storage technology. samsung multiply efforts in NOR production	Add Comment ( 0 ) SAMSUNG MULTIPLY EFFORTS IN NOR PRODUCTION

POSTER: computer news   ||   AMD FUSION RELEASE DATE	DATE:2007-02-26
Source reports that the development of its processors fusion is conducted BY AMD in two directions. For the highly productive models, calculated for the enthusiasts, in the production will be used the technology SOI (silicon on the insulator), and more accessible chips will be produced on the traditional - process. Last the solutions, probably, will be ordered BY AMD in the important OEM- producer taiwan semiconductor manufacturing company (TSMC). It is not thus far clear, will be able the latter to ensure the satisfactory percentage of the release of suitable chips, but the Chinese printed publication economic daily news examines this partnership AMD and TSMC as possible. SOI- technology is mastered Advanced micro devices with the second important OEM- producer, Chartered semiconductor. If developer will decide to stop exclusively at the technology, which foresees the isolation of transistors from the base layer by the layer of the dioxide silicon (it makes possible to decrease the leakage currents, to decrease the energy consumption of processor and to increase his speed), Chartered will become its only partner for the production. Let us recall, today this company already produces processors AMD. Appearance on the market for processors fusion is expected in 2008 and they must become first on the market, uniting CPU and GPU. amd fusion release date	Add Comment ( 0 ) AMD FUSION RELEASE DATE

POSTER: computer news   ||   AGEIA PHYSX 2007 PLAN	DATE:2007-02-24
The resource chile hardware took interview in  (Many hedge), head of company ageia, noted for its physical accelerator physX. We propose most interesting endurances from the conversation: Among the games of class AAA with the support physX, expected in the present year, Ageia calls Cellfactor: Revolution and Warmonger: Operation owntown destruction. (Will become they real Heath? It is doubtful (note editorial staff)). According to the head of company, the projects, which are found in the development now, will begin to operate only the small part of resources physX. On the present only the following wave of games will be able to open the potential of physical processor. What precisely and when they leave - is not refined. Ageia even now works at the second generation PPU and will present it, when market is finished. PhysX is compatible with Vista and DirectX10, the working version of drivers was completed for several months prior to the start of new OS. Also until today there are drivers for some versions Of linux. The support mac OS at the present moment is absent. To a question, does plan Ageia to realize the possibility of overclock PPU, the head of company answered washed away. On its words, overclock appropriate for that component of system, which is bottle neck system. However, physical accelerator is not until today the same. Judging by everything, to rely on the function of overclock in the new drivers thus does not be. In the future ageia is intended to realize the possibility of designing configurations two or more physical accelerators on the similarity SLI/crossFire in video card. Producer is intended to integrate PhysX in the GPGPU- calculations, after affording thus the possibility to conduct on it the calculations, connected with the creation of digital content, by coding/by decoding video, by financial, medical, design tasks. For this the company develops its own SDK, similar NVIDIA CUDA. In the future physX will appear also in the versions for mobile PC. The desktop rule of accelerators will be also augmented by more accessible models. At present Ageia conducts negotiations with AMD, NVIDIA, Intel and by other producers apropos of the possibility of introduction PPU into their products. In the course Of ceBIT 2007 from Ageia it is worthwhile to await new announcements and demonstrations of the possibilities of physical accelerator. ageia physX 2007 plan	Add Comment ( 0 ) AGEIA PHYSX 2007 PLAN
