XinaBox addresses IoT with modular xChips

[ad_1] It’s a modular system for both quickly building electronic products and supporting STEM learning, with no need for soldering or wiring. The constituent xChips (2×32 mm, 4x2U is 64×32 m) are designed to be fully interchangeable. A large range of such modular “xChips” are available. We’re talking cores, bridges, sensors, power, interfaces and outputRead more about XinaBox addresses IoT with modular xChips[…]

Nice guide to problem-solving when designing SLS 3D printed parts

Nice guide to problem-solving when designing SLS 3D printed parts

[ad_1] This process is a good way to make parts and prototypes that can be handled roughly. Surface finish and mechanical precision is not as good as some of the precision processes, but post-printing processes like polishing and dying can make a big difference to appearance. The guide is here, and I recommend having aRead more about Nice guide to problem-solving when designing SLS 3D printed parts[…]

Wavelength-scale features lead to fast practical graphene light sensing

Wavelength-scale features lead to fast practical graphene light sensing

[ad_1] The work is published in Nature Light Science & Applications in the paper ‘Gold-patched graphene nano-stripes for high-responsivity and ultrafast photodetection from the visible to infrared regime‘, whose title explains just about all you need to know. Photo-carrier generation is mostly confined to the graphene stripes and conduction mostly to the gold patches, meaningRead more about Wavelength-scale features lead to fast practical graphene light sensing[…]
