“EPFL researchers have found a way to control and standardize the production of nanowires on silicon surfaces. This discovery could make it possible to grow nanowires on electronic platforms, with potential applications including the integration of nanolasers into electronic chips …

“Combining miniaturisation and wireless connection, mobile devices require quick and durable sources of electricity: micro-supercapacitors and microbatteries could provide the solution. An increasing number of electronic devices function independently, sometimes even without physical contact, with their interconnection making up what …

“The Little Go Book is a free introduction to Google’s Go programming language. It’s aimed at developers who might not be quite comfortable with the idea of pointers and static typing. It’s longer than the other Little …

“Researchers have discovered that the ancient technique of heating metal to create vibrant colors creates a nanostructured surface that acts as a perfect light absorber. Perfect light absorbers — materials that absorb more than 99% of a certain color — can be …

“Scientists at Tokyo Tech, Ricoh co. and The National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology have developed an ultra-low-power atomic clock (ULPAC) for small satellites to enable future communication systems beyond 5G. The proposed device outperforms the current industry …

“SpaceX will launch an Israeli robotic lunar lander during the company’s Falcon 9 rocket launch tomorrow (Feb. 21). If the lander succeeds, this will be the first privately funded moonshot to reach the lunar surface. The lander, called “Beresheet …

“In this project, I have made the power bank with no switches. There are no charging ports on the power bank. It charges wirelessly and transmits wireless power to charge your mobile. This project involves lots of small parts and …

“This project describes how to get 12 analogue PWM outputs from an ATtiny85, so you can drive 12 LEDs with individual control over each LED’s brightness Each LED can be set to a brightness between 0 (off) and 63 …

“From time to time, I log online to window shop. We all have expensive guilty pleasures, right? I share things that catch my eye (#DailyTemptations)with you via my social channels. I also press the order now way too many …

“Electronics should get smaller, faster, and above all more energy-efficient. These themes are also present in several research groups at the Paul Scherrer Institute PSI. From incremental improvements to complete rethinking – who is currently working on what? Yasin Ekinci holds …
