Researchers have devised a way to use a laser to create strings of orderless bits for encryption.Asia appears to prize science and tech education far more than America does, and the result may be a waning of the West's economic and entrepreneurial dominance. New digital circuits work well in buzzing environments. Researchers look to the new administration to bring fresh perspectives to health, energy, climate policy and science funding Steven Chus prizes DOE's research prowess, but not it's ability to marshall its discoveries into marketable innovations. |
