M.C. Escher’s artwork is a gateway into a world of depth-defying optical illusions, featuring “impossible objects” that break the laws of physics with convoluted geometries. What you perceive his illustrations to be depends on your […]
Engineers at the University of Maine are developing a new method to more accurately predict the strength of lightweight 3D-printed objects. This research, conducted at the university’s Advanced Structures and Composites Center (ASCC), will enable […]
An interdisciplinary research team has engineered a new class of organic photoelectrochemical transistors (OPECTs). These tiny devices can convert light into electrical signals and mimic the behavior of synapses in the brain. The research results […]
Communication is a fundamental human right, and many individuals need augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) approaches or tools, such as a notebook or electronic tablet with symbols the user can select to create messages, to […]
Anyone who has slipped on a polished floor or felt their tires spinning in the snow knows instinctively the importance of surfaces. Certainly those in manufacturing—be it of robots, running shoes, or semiconductors—understand that they […]
To further reduce the size of electronic devices, while also improving their performance and energy efficiency, electronics engineers have been trying to identify alternative materials that outperform silicon and other conventional semiconductors. Two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors, […]
A tool developed at Texas A&M University is set to transform how emergency responders assess damage after disasters. The technology, known as CLARKE (Computer vision and Learning for Analysis of Roads and Key Edifices), uses […]
In an advancement for next-generation electronics, researchers from the International Center for Quantum Materials at Peking University in collaboration with Renmin University of China have successfully fabricated wafer-scale two-dimensional indium selenide (InSe) semiconductors. Led by […]
A mechanical artwork designed in 1775 to depict the eruption of Italy’s Mount Vesuvius has been brought to life for the first time—250 years after it was conceived—thanks to modern technology and the ingenuity of […]
Cornell researchers have uncovered a nearly invisible culprit hindering the development of next-generation, high-power electronics: a microscopic layer of carbon contamination, often left behind by air exposure and fabrication techniques, that impairs electrical flow in […]
