Water is usually something you’d want to keep away from electronic circuits, but engineers in Germany have now developed a new concept for water-based switches that are much faster than current ...

Qubits are “bits” of information for quantum systems and some elements of quantum mechanics. But how are qubits physically realized? How can electronics manage elements that belong to a quantum ...

We are always impressed with something so simple can actually be so complex. For example, what would you think goes into an analog computer? Of course, a “real” analog computer has opamps that can do ...

At a small local chapter meeting of a professional society, Gordon Moore's talk laid out the rudiments of what would become ...

You can add another crazy characteristic to graphene's ever-expanding list of "wonder material" properties: It can now be used to create flexible, transparent thin-film transistors... using an inkjet ...

Genetically modified cells can be made to communicate with each other as if they were electronic circuits. Using yeast cells, a group of researchers has taken a groundbreaking step towards being able ...

The process of circuit design can cover systems ranging from national power grids all the way down to the individual transistors within an integrated circuit. For simple circuits the design process ...
