Researchers demonstrate latest type of laser
A team of researchers led by Leo Kouwenhoven at TU Delft has demonstrated an on-chip microwave laser based on a fundamental property of superconductivity, the ac Josephson effect. They embedded a small section of an interrupted superconductor, a Josephson junction, in a carefully engineered on-chip cavity. Such a device opens the door to many applications in which microwave radiation with minimal dissipation is key, for example in controlling qub...
Compact motherboard features Intel Gen9 graphics engine
Axiomtek has introduced PICO312, a palm-sized fanless pico-ITX motherboard built with the latest 14nm quad-core Intel Pentium processor N4200 or dual-core Celeron processor N3350 (codename: Apollo Lake SoC). One 204-pin DDR3L-1867 SO-DIMM socket supports system memory up to 8GB.
Free Flower Power boards light up Embedded World
300 Intersil ‘Flower Power’ light-sensing reference design boards will be given away by distributor Future Electronics at Embedded World 2017 in Nuremberg ( March 14-16). The Flower Power reference design board will be demonstrated live at the show and celebrates the 50th anniversary of the San Francisco Summer of Love.
1080p display solution for smart TVs
As brands and developers have been awaiting a solution that will allow them to create smaller form factor products integrating 1080p projection displays, Texas Instruments (TI) has announced its DLP Pico 0.33" full-HD chipset.
Design reduces resting power consumption by 50%
At the International Solid-State Circuits Conference, researchers from MIT’s Microsystems Technologies Laboratories (MTL) presented a power converter that maintains its efficiency at currents ranging from 500 picoamps to 1 milliamp, a span that encompasses a 2,000,000-fold increase.
Technique provides unique views of single molecules
Determining the exact configuration of proteins and other complex biological molecules is an important step toward understanding their functions, including how they bind with receptors in the body. But such imaging is difficult to do. It usually requires the molecules to be crystallised first so that X-ray diffraction techniques can be applied — and not all such molecules can be crystallised.
VR device shipments to hit 110m by 2021
According to ABI Research, standalone VR device shipments will hit 110m by 2021.While mobile device-reliant VR shipments - for example Samsung Gear VR and Google Daydream - dwarf today’s other VR device types, standalone devices will see a 405% CAGR through 2021, compared to a 42% CAGR for mobile VR.
International project improves LED properties
Given the growing demands placed on the electrical, optical and thermal functionality of LEDs, engineers are paying more and more attention to the advancement of new material properties. As a result, the FLINGO project (Functional Inorganic Layers for Next Generation Optical Devices) was established to develop new materials (layers, in particular) and processes to improve the efficiency and durability of LEDs.
