Engineers from the of Utah and Minnesota discover materials which could generate more power

Engineers from the University of Utah and the University of Minnesota have found that interfacing two particular oxide-based materials makes them highly conductive, could bring about substantially more power-effective tablets, electric cars andhome appliances.
Two oxide compounds ,strontium titanate (STO) and neodymium titanate (NTO) — interact with each other, produces many free electrons that could result more energy efficient. when STO and NTO interface each other, the amount of electrons generated is a hundred times larger than what is possible in semiconductors.It is also about five times more conductive than silicon [the material most used in electronics] University of Utah electrical and computer engineering assistant professor Berardi Sensale-Rodriguez said.
