Nano-demodulator used in working radio
Abstract:
-- U.S. scientists say they've created the world's first working radio that converts radio waves wirelessly, using a detector made of carbon nanotubes.
The nano-radio device is thousands of times smaller than the diameter of a human hair.
The researchers -- University of California-Irvine graduate student Chris Rutherglen and Associate Professor Peter Burke -- said the development marks an important step in the evolution of nano-electronics and could lead to the production of the world's smallest radio.
