The local thermal conductivity in certain oxides can be precisely defined by a voltage-biased AFM tip, a new CiQUS study shows Overheating in electronic devices affects how it works and how long it ...

A prominent feature of thalamocortical circuitry in sensory systems is the extensive and highly organized feedback projection from the cortex to the thalamic neurons that provide stimulus-specific ...

Electrical engineers have created the smallest electro-optical modulator yet, using a thin film of lithium niobate bonded on a silicon dioxide layer. This key component of a photonics-based chip ...

To make something work using electricity there needs to be an electrical circuit; a circuit is a complete loop that electricity can move around. Electricity moves from the power source (the battery or ...

The FM modulator circuit (frequency modulation) is built with a Motorola MC1648P oscillator. Two varactors, Motorola MV-209 are used to frequency modulate the oscillator. The 5000 Ω potentiometer is ...

Field tests are described which investigate the transmission of compatible-single-sideband signals from a typical high-power transmitter for high-frequency broadcasting and which compare reception of ...

A friend bought an electric jacket to wear on his motorcycle. But it was on all the time when it was plugged in, which made him sweaty at certain temperature ranges. He was looking for a way to ...

For electricity to flow, everything needs to be connected in a big ring. It’s called a circuit. For example, the lights in most houses and flats are part of a circuit controlled by the consumer unit, ...

Scientists at The University of Manchester have discovered a new method of creating optoelectronic circuits using graphene and other 2D materials that are much smaller than their current counterparts.
