A lot of people think sheetmetal work is the hot rodding equivalent of rocket science. And forget about shrinking metal; that's alchemy. A Ph.D. in mechanical engineering or medieval chemistry would ...

As a proof-of-concept test device, the team developed a wearable ring with an embedded, miniaturized accelerometer that captured and successfully communicated gesture-based movements over a network.

A group of international scientists have collaborated to create what they say is the world's thinnest and smoothest metallic lines which are used in electronic components. The technological ...

You don’t have to look very far in the semiconductor world before you see the word “scaling.” Perhaps you read an industry news article headline about transistor scaling – how those nearly nanoscale ...

(PhysOrg.com) -- By controlling how light bends around an object, researchers have built a shrinking device that makes objects appear smaller than they actually are. Although the original object does ...

The increasing miniaturization and sophistication of electronic products, ranging from consumer media devices to medical diagnostic tools to defense-related sonar applications, presents a bounty of ...
