UTRECHT, Netherlands and LONDON, September 9 /PRNewswire/ -- VocaLink and Equens, have implemented a bilateral link for the exchange of SEPA payments. This is a major step in the implementation of the EACHA(1) framework announced in October 2007 to help establish interoperability between banks and European CSMs(2). The arrangement supports both companies' SEPA offering while helping to create a more competitive market by allowing banks to choose the payments processor or processors that best meet their needs.

University of Chicago scientists have discovered how to make magnetic sensors capable of operating at the high temperatures that ceramic engines in cars and aircraft of the future will require for higher operating efficiency than today's internal combustion technology.

The key to fabricating the sensors involves slightly diluting samples of a well-known semiconductor material, called indium antimonide, which is valued for its purity. Chicago's Thomas Rosenbaum and associate Jingshi Hu, now of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, have published their formula in the September issue of Nature Materials.
