In the early digital era, logic gates were made exclusively of transistors and discrete components. The obvious occupation of a large space and increased heat dissipation pushed technology to ...

You’re probably familiar with the little black boxes nestled neatly inside your favorite devices. With their diminutive size and unassuming characteristics, it can be hard to believe these vessels are ...

Photonic integrated circuits are the optical equivalent of microchips, using semiconductor industry processes to shrink many photonic components down onto a piece of material often smaller than a ...

A new publication from Opto-Electronic Advances discusses high performance integrated photonic-circuit-based on inverse design method. With the explosive growth of information and data, photonic ...

Analog vs. Digital: What’s the Difference? Air temperature, sound loudness,light intensity—in nature, all of these quantities vary smoothly and continuously over a range. Such quantities is called ...

Flexible hybrid electronic (FHE) promises to combine the functionality of conventional rigid electronics with the flexibility of printed electronics. A prototypical FHE circuit, in which an integrated ...
