This research article focuses on a highly favored route to the synthesis of controlled nanostructures at high rate, high yield, and low cost by molten carbonate electrolysis. The addition of Zn, such as occurs in a coating on galvanized steel, further lowers the activation energy for CNT formation.

This article was first published as “Marcian E Hoff.” Busicom had hired Intel to develop a set of custom chips for a low-cost calculator and had sent three engineers to Santa Clara to work on the chip designs. San Antonio, Texas, which, architected by Computer Terminals, was named the 8008. You’re crazy.”

This article was first published as "Design case history: the Commodore 64." We also examined the Texas Instruments 99/4A and the Atari 800. When the design of the Commodore 64 began, the overriding goals were simplicity and low cost. It appeared in the March 1985 issue of IEEE Spectrum. They are terrible,” he said.
