Recharge Your Smartphone in 30 Seconds with Quantum Dots!

An Israeli startup unveils a new generation of battery -based organic nanoparticles with quantum properties. Video demo of a new generation of battery manufactured by the company StoreDot is the buzz on the web. It shows that a Smartphone can be recharged in 30 seconds of time duration. If you consider today’s recharging time of several hours to reach a full charge, this is a boon to a Smartphone user.

However, you cannot expect to fit your phone tomorrow with this new technology, which will not be sold within 3 years. At this point, the video depicts a prototype, too bulky to attach to the inside of the Smartphone. It remains that this new technology could be promising. This is at least what seems to think Samsung, which is currently in talks with the start -up.

Made from compounds of semi conductors, these "quantum dots" manage to confine electrons and holes (electrons location having been previously dislodged) in a confined space in three dimensions, of the order of several tens of nanometers. This assembly is sometimes having their name “artificial atoms “. Their optical and electronic properties are already used in many applications like transistor, LED, medical imaging, solar energy production and many more.

Usually, the quantum dots are synthesized from inorganic materials often based on the elements like arsenic, gallium and selenium. Now StoreDot offers for the first time to use peptides - these organic molecules formed as amino acids, the building blocks of proteins. According to Gil Rosenman, director of research belongs to StoreDot; these peptides spontaneously assemble to form quantum dots under certain conditions.

And those peptides can behave as semiconductors. The advantage of peptide chains is that they are easy and inexpensive to synthesize. Moreover, these quantum dots are made "from amino acid naturally produced by plants and animals, they should therefore not be too harmful to the environment. These are unlike to that of most inorganic quantum dots, especially those made from heavy metals.

This is a remarkable discovery, they add, as well as large organic molecules conduct electricity is well known but nobody had considered that biological peptides can behave as semiconductors. According StoreDot, new batteries boosted biological Nanoparticles could take five days to drain instead of one day for a conventional batteries.

And 7 minutes of charge is sufficient to use your Smartphone for 24 hours. Besides, according to Gil Rosenman, the life of the battery would be significantly extended. This is due to their crystalline form, quantum dots could remain for thousands of charge cycles it seems.

FAN ISSUES
 
Overheating is based on the fan.If the fan gets lots of dust means it won’t transfer the heat properly. Further addition of dust leads to stop the processing of the fan. If the fan is not working means it would be recommended that not to use laptop. Commonly when fixing anyone’s computer the issue found is that it has not been maintained.

• Occasionally check the laptop’s temperature, speed in bios.

· There is a software router for fan which is used to control the pace of the fan. By installing them we can reduce the noise of the fan.

· Using a light weight OS in the laptop keeps it cooler. Light weight means not use primary OS.

· In order to clean the fan uses a compressed air. i.e pump the compressed air through the fan. Dusts will automatically get removed. While doing so you have to remove the battery and inner parts of the laptop using screws.

· Closing the unwanted programs running in the background will help you to keep the laptop cooler.
Using a laptop cooler avoids the laptop from overheating. When the number of process running increases means the system temperature will also get increased. So it is advised to use external laptop cooler.

How To Create and Organize notes with the Virtual PNotes

In the technology world, there are so many things that we need to memorize in our tiny mind. Few things will fade away and few things will remember in our mind. The important meetings and schedules are all dependent on them but the future of those notes is bleak because of its lacking features and the risk of losing them.

To overcome this problem, PNotes (Portable notes or Pinned notes) is introduced to keep the data safe and secure to avoid any external element to damage or sabotage the information. Virtual PNotes is the next step in the field of technology and it’s written completely in C and Windows API making it light-weight and extremely fast. It has nice settings which makes it extremely flexible and user friendly like skin tone setting, font management, alarms, tags etc.

In PNotes, any portion of the note can be formatted separately and the settings included the whole program and individual note as well. The control panel is the center of management for the settings of the notes. PNotes is present in the virtual world but its applications make it an asset and it no longer feels out of the reach.

The variation in the skin of the note can be done using PNSkinCreator, which is a utility and sometimes the note can be skinless making it expandable to any reasonable size. There is a password setting to prevent any unauthorized access to program and sometimes the note can be saved as an encrypted file in case of loss of USB stick. The encrypted file can be used by the creator and no other person can access it. Scheduling of the notes is important depending on the intensity and urgency of the work.

The alarm can be set accordingly to three levels- once in a day, once in few hours, few times in every hour. The notes can be joined into a group depending on the kind of work and it consists of simple steps like create, modify, delete using simple drag-and-drop.

Tips to use BBM App on an Android/iPhone Device

BBM App on iPhone and Android

BlackBerry had rolled out BBM on iPhone and Android devices in addition to BlackBerry Smartphone and this rollout has made way for new developments on the chat messenger besides making big profits for them. While surfing the web, the user can use the BBM App on a device which is restricted to Android and iPhone device. It is an Android app which helps individuals to get connected with friends and family around the world at no additional cost.

To get started, one has to ensure that the device is supported by BBM. For Android, BBM supports Smartphone running on Android v4.0 – Ice Cream Sandwich and with a screen size of 7 inch or less. For iPhone, BBM supports iOS v6 and v7 or later.

BlackBerry ID Essential

Setting up this app is very easy though some requirements need to be fulfilled. To download BBM on Android or iPhone, you could visit the BBM site from the iPhone or Android Smartphone browser which will lead to the official BBM app in the Apple Store or Google Play and is the best way to ensure that one gets the real BBM for iPhone or Android.

In order to use the BBM app, a BBID (Blackberry ID) is essential to create an account enabling the user to login to BBM on Android. The entire contacts list along with other details of BBM will now be linked to the BBID and the user will no longer need to manually backup and restore the contact list whenever the device is switched on.

If the BBID is not available, the user will need to create one after installing BBM on the device or create one online at bbid.com and after creating the BBID can then sign in to BBM and get started with chatting with their friends and family far and near.

PIN Barcode 

Once the BBM is installed and the user has successfully signed in using the Blackberry ID, a few things need to be known to get the most of BBM. A BBM PIN which is a unique identifier used in BBM automatically gets generated when the user logs in to BBM for the first time. In case of inviting someone to be a BBM contact, the PIN could be given which can help in connecting with people without the need to sharing personal information.

New contact can also be added on BBM with the help of the PIN Barcode instead of having to type out the PIN number. After the friends have scanned the PIN barcode, then they will be added to each other’s contact list without exchanging any personal information with the exception of the unique PIN.

In case of locating the BBM PIN, you could tap the BBM picture or the name followed by `Show Barcode’ along the bottom toolbar. When the user signs in to BBM on Android using a BlackBerry ID, the contacts will be automatically backed up and if logged in using different device with the same BBID, the user will be prompted to restore their contact list.
