Manchester Scientists Find Novel One-Dimensional Superconductor

“In a significant development in the field of superconductivity, researchers at The University of Manchester have successfully achieved robust superconductivity in high magnetic fields using a newly created one-dimensional (1D) system. This breakthrough offers a promising pathway to achieving superconductivity …

Mess is best: disordered structure of battery-like devices improves performance

“The energy density of supercapacitors — battery-like devices that can charge in seconds or a few minutes — can be improved by increasing the ‘messiness’ of their internal structure. Researchers led by the University of Cambridge used experimental and computer modelling techniques …

Microchip Brings Enhanced Code Protection and up to 15W of Power Delivery to its USB Microcontroller Portfolio

“AVR® DU Family enables embedded designers to easily implement USB functionality into a wider range of systems The well-known advantages of a Universal Serial Bus (USB) interface for embedded designs include its compatibility with various devices, streamlined communication protocol, in-field …

Microchip Technology Expands Its Serial SRAM Portfolio to Larger Densities and Increased Speeds

“Product line offers a lower-cost alternative to parallel SRAM with up to 4 Mb density and 143 MHz SPI/SQI™ communications To address a common customer need for bigger and faster SRAM, Microchip Technology (Nasdaq: MCHP) has expanded its Serial …

Micron First to Production of 200+ Layer QLC NAND in Client and Data Center

“Micron Technology, Inc. (Nasdaq: MU), today demonstrated its continued NAND technology leadership by announcing that its 232-layer QLC NAND is now in mass production and shipping in select Crucial® SSDs, in volume production to enterprise storage customers and sampling to …

MIT researchers discover “neutronic molecules”

“Study shows neutrons can bind to nanoscale atomic clusters known as quantum dots. The finding may provide insights into material properties and quantum effects. Neutrons are subatomic particles that have no electric charge, unlike protons and electrons. That means that …

MIT scientists tune the entanglement structure in an array of qubits

“The advance offers a way to characterize a fundamental resource needed for quantum computing. Entanglement is a form of correlation between quantum objects, such as particles at the atomic scale. This uniquely quantum phenomenon cannot be explained by the laws …

NASA’s Ingenuity Mars Helicopter Team Says Goodbye … for Now

“The final downlink shift by the Ingenuity team was a time to reflect on a highly successful mission — and to prepare the first aircraft on another world for its new role. Engineers working on NASA’s Ingenuity Mars Helicopter assembled …

NASA’s Voyager 1 Resumes Sending Engineering Updates to Earth

“After some inventive sleuthing, the mission team can — for the first time in five months — check the health and status of the most distant human-made object in existence. For the first time since November, NASA’s Voyager 1 spacecraft is …

New 3D-printing method makes printing objects more affordable and eco-friendly

“The discovery has the potential to advance the world of additive manufacturing. University of Florida engineers have developed a method for 3D printing called vapor-induced phase-separation 3D printing, or VIPS-3DP, to create single-material as well as multi-material objects. The …
