Analog Deep Learning Processor (MIT)
By Technical Paper Link - 29 Jul, 2022 - Comments: 0

A team of researchers at MIT are working on hardware for artificial intelligence that offers faster computing with less power. The analog deep learning technique involves sending protons through solids at extremely fast speeds.  “The working mechanism of the device is electrochemical insertion of the smallest ion, the proton, into an insulating oxide to modulate its electronic conductivity... » read more

Cubic Boron Arsenide’s Unique Semiconducting Properties (MIT)
By Technical Paper Link - 22 Jul, 2022 - Comments: 0

New research claims cubic boron arsenide could be a “game-changing” semiconductor with a “very high mobility for both electrons and holes,” according to this MIT article. “Heat is now a major bottleneck for many electronics,” says Shin, the paper’s lead author. “Silicon carbide is replacing silicon for power electronics in major EV industries including Tesla, since it has thr... » read more

Ramping capacity Samsung is considering building as many as 11 fabs in central Texas, investing an estimated $200 billion and creating as many as 10,000 jobs. The plans came to light when the company filed paperwork for tax breaks. Samsung already has broken ground on a new $17 billion fab in Taylor, Texas. The remaining nine fabs, including two in nearby Austin, would be built over the next c... » read more
