0:00 Intro

0:15 Reaching virtual worlds via E-paper

Researchers in Sweden have developed a new type of electronic paper that’s essentially a reflective screen. About the size of a human pupil, the new technology features the smallest pixels ever created and the highest resolution the human eye can possibly see. It could someday be used in higher-quality device screens that consume less energy.

1:18 Business news roundup

The Global Semiconductor Alliance recently announced the recipient of the organization’s 2025 Dr. Lisa Su Woman of Innovation Award. And in the finance sector, PicoJool has secured funding to help further develop various technologies.

2:24 Boron arsenide could replace diamond

Boron arsenide is on the scene! A team at the Texas Center for Superconductivity at the University of Houston has discovered this material has thermal conductivity as high as diamond, and is also an excellent thermal conductor and semiconductor that could potentially surpass silicon.
