Since 1972, scientists have known there are four basic circuit components, but if you've spent any time in an electrical engineering classroom, you probably only have experience with three: capacitor, ...

In a proof-of-concept study, researchers have created self-assembled, protein-based circuits that can perform simple logic functions. The work demonstrates that it is possible to create stable digital ...

Computers and liquids are not very compatible, as many a careless coffee-drinking laptop owner has discovered. But a new breakthrough by researchers at the California Institute of Technology could ...

Multiple droplets of a magnetic fluid have been used to create all of the fundamental logic circuits within a computer. Created by researchers in the US, the circuits are made by having the ...

The newly developed logic circuits are equipped with diamond-based MOSFETs (metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect-transistors), and they have two different operation modes. The different modes are a ...

The field of all‐optical logic circuits has garnered significant attention in recent years, particularly with the integration of micro‐ring resonators to process information entirely via light. These ...
