A new approach to combining GaN and CMOS devices on silicon takes us a step closer to low-cost high-performance system-on-one chips.
New standards for hand phantoms are being developed that will assist with the design of more efficient mobile phones.
The first four-Mach-Zehnder type optical modulator to be monolithically integrated on LiNbO3 (LN) for optical 16-level quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) has been demonstrated by collaborating researchers in Japan. Dr Akito Chiba, a researcher at the National Institute of Information and Communications Technology, tells us more about their achievement.
The potential for cost-effective optical power monitoring created on a silicon platform using widely available techniques has been demonstrated by a group of researchers from Canada, the US and the UK.
Ferrites are known to be effective for shielding antenna radiation, and researchers in France and India have developed a wearable antenna mounted on a polymer-ferrite sheet.
Researchers from the University of Turku, Finland, have demonstrated that Boolean functions can be computed using only two memristors, thus reducing the complexity of circuits incorporating memristors.
One of the challenges in mathematical biology is to find an underlying code in the structure of DNA. Researchers from the State University of Campinas, Brazil, have demonstrated the existence of error-correcting codes associated with DNA sequences.
A single element dual-feed PIFA antenna suitable for wireless diversity and MIMO applications has been created and tested by researchers at the University of Liverpool in the UK.
