Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

With regards,

Now as I approach my 90th birthday ( 27 June 2023 ) , I invite you to visit my Digital Avatar ( www.hemenparekh.ai ) – and continue chatting with me , even when I am no more here physically

Black Money : Solution at last

Are  We  There  Yet  ?



Some two years back I suggested that our high denomination ( Rs 500 / Rs 2000 ) currency notes should be embedded with RFID chips ( micro-sensors ) and create a Technology Platform ( in IT department ) through which such notes can be tracked , through NFC in smart phones carried in everybody’s pocket



Idea was to put a permanent end to BLACK MONEY generation / accumulation through CORRUPTION



But the problem was :


How to “ power “ ( - although , very small ) those RFID chips , to be able to reveal their Unique Serial Numbers to a nearby smart phone / smart watch ( - which , in turn , communicates with the server of the IT department )  ?


Could following news appearing in today’s Deccan Chronicle , solve that problem ?






New printable thin films could help power Internet of Things

Scientists, including one of Indian origin, have designed printable, organic thin films for "neuromorphic" computers inspired by the human brain, which will help power Internet of Things.  Internet of Things (IoT) need components and chips that can handle huge quantities of data.

In 2020, there will already be 50 billion industrial internet sensors in place all around us. A single autonomous device - a smart watch, a cleaning robot, or a driverless car - can produce gigabytes of data each day, whereas an airbus may have over 10,000 sensors in one wing alone.

Current transistors in computer chips must be miniaturised to the size of only few nanometres, and analysing and storing unprecedented amounts of data will require huge amounts of energy.

Sayani Majumdar, from the Aalto University in Finland, along with her colleagues, designed and fabricated the basic building blocks of "neuromorphic" computers inspired by the human brain.

"The technology and design of neuromorphic computing is advancing more rapidly than its rival revolution, quantum computing," said Majumdar.

"The key is to achieve the extreme energy-efficiency of a biological brain and mimic the way neural networks process information through electric impulses," she said.

In a study published in the journal Advanced Functional Materials, researchers showed how they have fabricated a new breed of 'ferroelectric tunnel junctions', that is, few-nanometre-thick ferroelectric thin films sandwiched between two electrodes.

They have abilities beyond existing technologies and bode well for energy-efficient and stable neuromorphic computing. The junctions work in low voltages of less than five volts and with a variety of electrode materials – including silicon used in chips in most of our electronics.

They also can retain data for more than 10 years without power and be manufactured in normal conditions.

"Our junctions are made out of organic hydro-carbon materials and they would reduce the amount of toxic heavy metal waste in electronics," said Majumdar.

"We can also make thousands of junctions a day in room temperature without them suffering from the water or oxygen in the air," she said.

"What we are striving for now, is to integrate millions of our tunnel junction memristors into a network on a one square centimetre area," she added.

"We can expect to pack so many in such a small space because we have now achieved a record-high difference in the current between on and off-states in the junctions and that provides functional stability," Majumdar said.

"The memristors could then perform complex tasks like image and pattern recognition and make decisions autonomously," she said.



I urge Shri Arun Jaitleyji / Shri Ravi Shankar Prasadji , to invite Sayani Majumdar and pose to her the challenge of getting India rid of  BLACK MONEY  forever through her invention



But , before reaching out to Sayani , they may want to look up my following earlier emails on the subject of embedding RFID chip in high denomination notes :
