Lecture No. 34. Protecting the environment from energy impacts

As a result of the scientific and technological revolution, processes and devices, which are sources of electromagnetic radiation (EMR), have become widespread, which has now turned into a "raging ocean" of EMR, many times greater than the natural background created by the radiation of the Sun. Electromagnetic radiation of artificial origin, together with natural solar radiation, has a significant impact on human health, as well as on all living things in the biosphere. Electromagnetic radiation produces a biological effect on the functioning of the body as a whole, as well as on its individual systems - immune, endocrine, hematopoietic, and so on, as well as on the sense organs - eyes, ears, leading to various disorders and damage. Researchers have established the negative impact of electromagnetic radiation from high-voltage power lines on people living near these lines.

And to protect against such energy impacts, they propose the creation of a buffer zone of dense, dense forest plantations, including tall trees such as cypress and pyramidal poplar, between EMP sources and residential buildings. In addition, residential buildings and EMP sources must have a ground loop. Such radiation is created by television and radio centers (their transmitting devices), radars (airports, air defense systems).

Refrigerators, televisions, computers, radios, VCRs, vacuum cleaners, microwave ovens, etc. are considered to be sources of electromagnetic radiation directly in a residential or industrial premises that have a negative effect on the body. Experts consider them comparable in terms of the strength of the impact of some home electromagnetic fields on the human body. with electromagnetic radiation from power lines. The negative effects of computers on people's health during long-term work, manifested in the form of depression, stress, headaches, insomnia, skin irritation, eye fatigue, have been noted.

The variable electromagnetic field of monitors is a powerful source of alternating electromagnetic and electric fields of high and low frequencies.

According to the statistics of the studies conducted, high-intensity electric fields increase the likelihood of cancer by 7 times, and also contribute to a change in the structure of dental fillings, which leads to their destruction and the release of toxic substances. To protect against the above effects, it is necessary to use filters of the "maximum protection" class (type "MAX-MP-196"). In addition, ecologists recommend placing indoor ornamental plants and flowers in rooms where various electrical equipment, including computers, works. It is also mandatory to connect electrical appliances (including computers) to the ground loop of residential and industrial buildings.

The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven 09.05.2024

Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

The era of graphene is coming 09.10.2013

In 2015, mass production of graphene will begin - scientists and engineers from the startup Graphene Frontiers are sure of this.

In September, the US National Science Foundation gave the University of Pennsylvania $744 to develop a startup called Graphene Frontiers. Such generosity can be explained by the prospects of a startup that should organize the mass production of graphene. The availability of graphene is of great importance for the development of many promising technologies based on this material, which has unique properties.

Graphene Frontiers plans to implement a new technology for the large-scale production of high-quality rolled graphene. The company hopes to be the first to adapt the chemical vapor deposition method, which is often used in laboratories and small industries to create polycrystalline graphene, to industrial needs.

Although polycrystalline graphene has found applications in devices such as advanced composite materials and high-frequency transistors, single-crystal graphene has much more attractive properties. Unfortunately, modern technologies for the production of single-crystal graphene, to put it mildly, are far from industrial applications, for example, the method of separating a graphene monolayer from graphite using adhesive tape. Other methods, such as the separation of carbon layers using plasma, or various chemical methods, do not produce very good quality graphene. For the mass introduction of new generation graphene electronics, a new technology for the mass production of single-crystal graphene is needed.

The chemical vapor deposition method allows the production of very high quality synthetic graphene and can be applied to the production of electronics, solar panels and other devices where transparent conductors are required. Graphene Frontiers specialists plan to use continuous rolling (roll-to-roll) for the production of graphene. This is a flexible circuit manufacturing method in which microcircuits are printed on a continuous substrate tape that is rewound from one roller to another. The combination of chemical vapor deposition technology and continuous rolling will produce high-quality graphene electronic components, which will open up a new generation electronics market.
