Is it topological? A new materials database has the answer

“Searchable tool reveals more than 90,000 known materials with electronic properties that remain unperturbed in the face of disruption. What will it take to make our electronics smarter, faster, and more resilient? One idea is to build them from …

Jacobs University Researchers Develop New Measurement Method In Molecular Electronics

“Controlling electrical signals using single molecules enables the miniaturization of transistors in integrated circuits down to the atomic level. This research area of molecular electronics not only paves the way for the next generation of ultra-powerful computers, but also for …

Li-Ion/Li-Po 18650 Battery to 5V Boost Converter

“The project presented here is capable of supplying 400mA of current from a 3.7V Li-Ion/Li-Po Battery input with a 5V output. The converter has an internal soft start and internal frequency compensation features. The project is built using …

Low-cost battery-like device absorbs CO2 emissions while it charges

“Researchers have developed a low-cost device that can selectively capture carbon dioxide gas while it charges. Then, when it discharges, the CO2 can be released in a controlled way and collected to be reused or disposed of responsibly. The supercapacitor …

Magnetic resonance makes the invisible visible

“Hyperpolarised water boosts signal intensities of proteins, DNA, and membranes A small group of researchers including Dennis Kurzbach from the Faculty of Chemistry of the University of Vienna just published in “Nature Protocols” an advanced NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) method …

Major milestones for Arm SystemReady in driving ecosystem standards

“The data center market is a thriving and innovative one, but to continue to scale the industry needs to tackle issues around fragmentation, finding the right balance between standardization where it makes sense, and differentiation where it matters. Arm introduced …

Microchip Introduces Fully Integrated Precise Time Scale System

“Enables Nations to Operate an Independent Time Scale Back-up to GNSS to Protect Critical Infrastructure The strength of a nation’s infrastructure is increasingly dependent on the accuracy of time. With pervasive cybersecurity threats to Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS …
