Our everyday cares, making a living, the crazy rat race of life, often make us forget the value of a good deed.

Some of us see the potential of having one operating system run a whole range of phones -- not just the high-end phones -- from the high-end phone down to at least the middle layer phones, and I think operators see that also as a potentially big advantage.

We published several papers explaining how these crystals produce X-rays and electron beams, and they're very efficient in doing this. So using low-energy X-rays or low-energy electron beams - by which I mean similar to the energies that are used currently in medical imaging rather than treatment - we can produce a really high dose of electrons that can penetrate a very thin layer of the skin. If such a device can produce high enough dose, then we can possibly use it for cancer treatment - and we're not far from this goal.
