Many ofrepparttar newer technologies that industry now requires calls for miniaturized components that do more than their predecessors, in affect making them smart by comparison. Electronic devices can be made today that would have seemed like something out of a science fiction movie only a few decades ago.

Smart technologies, like OKRM's waffer-thin batteries, are ideally suited for a variety of applications where a small power source is needed for miniaturized components.

The range of possible applications of these batteries derives from their important advantages compared to conventional battery technologies: (1) Because of their all solid-state construction,repparttar 106115 batteries are completely safe under all operating conditions. Moreover, they are unaffected by g-forces, thus making them uniquely suited for smart munitions and other applications in which extreme acceleration is experienced. (2) They can be made in any shape and size to meetrepparttar 106116 requirements of each application, and unlike conventional batteries,repparttar 106117 cost of thin-film batteries decreases as its size decreases. (3) Lithium-ion thin-film batteries can be heated to a temperature of 300 degrees C with no degradation in performance. This means they can be added to integrated circuits usingrepparttar 106118 highly efficient solder reflow process. (4) The batteries can be cycled thousands of times with negligible loss of capacity. This means thatrepparttar 106119 size ofrepparttar 106120 batteries needs to be no larger than required to satisfyrepparttar 106121 energy requirements on a single cycle. With cycle lives easily in excess of 5,000 cycles, it would require conventional primary coin cell batteries, for example, to have 5,000 times more capacity than a thin-film battery forrepparttar 106122 same application.

Axcess Business News believes that technology such as Oak Ridge Micro-Energy's can improve both airport safety and fulfill government contractors needs. While this growth-stage company is relatively unknown to Wall Street, Axcess Business News began covering this stock recently, adding OKRM to our Small Cap Corner's "best picks" column. Shares of OKRM closed up 8% since coverage began last week, prompting ABN to expand its news coverage ofrepparttar 106123 Company.
