ScAlN is a piezoelectric semiconductor material with a high dielectric strength which is largely unexplored worldwide with regard of its usability in microelectronic applications. “ScAlN is especially well suited for power electronic components due to ...
Engineering is always about trade-offs, but autonomous vehicles are pushing that to the limit with conflicting requirements. One common thread runs through all of these requirements, and it’s one we usually take for granted: timing. In order for ...
We’ve got to admit to being a bit of a Casio G-Shock watch geek. The big, chunky watches were every day carry items that survived everything we dished out, right up until the smartphone made ...
For 15 years, scientists have tried to exploit the "miracle material" graphene to produce nanoscale electronics. On paper, graphene should be great for just that: it is ultra-thin—only one atom thick and therefore two-dimensional, it is excellent for ...
Personalized healthcare is the Holy Grail of medicine—the idea that every illness or disease can be treated on an individual basis for each patient, with medicines, drugs and treatments designed for each person’s biology to be optimally successful.
