Small-signal analysis of switching dc-dc converters determines their specific transfer functions, for example, for stability analysis or design of a proper input filter. Transfer functions of interest ...

Researchers at Japan’s Chiba University have developed organic semiconductor devices that both emit light and harvest energy, ...

The past three decades have seen major improvements in organic semiconductor devices. Technologies such as organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), organic photovoltaics (OPVs) and organic field-effect ...

Scientists have developed a self-healing, recyclable circuit board using vitrimer and liquid metal. The material maintains conductivity after damage, reshapes under heat, and may reduce growing ...

image: For the first time, researchers have developed crystalline materials that allow an optical fiber to have integrated, high-speed electronic functions. The potential applications of such optical ...

Electronic materials have been a major stumbling block for the advance of flexible electronics because existing materials do not function well after breaking and healing. A new electronic material ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) In the future, wearable electronics will go far beyond just very small electronic devices. Not only will such devices be embedded on textile substrates, but an electronics device ...

Human-machine interaction is increasingly part of our daily lives. Examples are wearable devices that monitor our vital functions, beds that measure our sleeping patterns, and car interiors that ...
