3D Printing For More Circuits


After several years of experimentation, and growing success in volume manufacturing for some use cases, technologies for 3D printing of electronic circuits are becoming more common. Some innovations in processes and materials are moving these technologies closer to mainstream electronics manufacturing. Christopher Tuck, professor of material science at the University of Nottingham, observed ... » read more

Power/Performance Bits: Feb. 23


Photonic AI accelerator There are now many processors and accelerators focused on speeding up neural network performance, but researchers at the University of Münster, University of Oxford, Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne (EPFL), IBM Research Europe, and University of Exeter say AI processing could happen even faster with the use of photonic tensor processors that can handle mu... » read more

Power/Performance Bits: April 14


Undoped polymer ink Researchers at Linköping University, Chalmers University of Technology, University of Washington, University of Cologne, Chiba University, and Yunnan University developed an organic ink for printable electronics that doesn't need to be doped for good conductivity. "We normally dope our organic polymers to improve their conductivity and the device performance. The proces... » read more
