Technologists have long known about silicon's limitations as principal ingredient in microchips. It just so happens they've just been really good at coming up with workarounds. Still, as chipmakers ...

A new kind of processor that uses microwaves can be used in future AI systems or in wireless communications, a new study ...

(Phys.org)—A team of scientists from several research centers in South Korea, has succeeded in building a logic circuit that is based on switchable magnetism, rather than electronics. They describe ...

Major obstacle removed for mass production of circuits ten times smaller than current mass production. As they eliminate tiny air bubbles that form when liquid droplets are molded into intricate ...

They have linked two tiny structures – quantum dots – in such a way that is essential for the creation of semiconductor-based quantum computers, which could be faster and provide more memory than ...

Engineering students at Lafayette’s Centaurus High School are designing prosthetic hands using the basic circuitry and computer programming skills they learned through a recent pilot program. The ...

Glen Kessler’s “CircuitScapes” paintings at Glen Echo Park’s Popcorn Gallery are just what they sound like: works that, through sleight of hand, turn microchips and bits of computer circuitry into ...

This article originally appeared in Yale Engineering magazine. Imagine working in an office where, once you’ve finished one task, you had to wait until everyone in all the other cubicles completed the ...

Just as a falling apple spurred Isaac Newton's discovery of gravity, toppling dominoes have inspired researchers to build the world's smallest computer circuits. Scientists at IBM's Almaden Research ...
