Half metal, half organic structure, like Robocop himself, is the material known as MOF, short for Metal Organic Framework. MOF has been developed by scientists and applied to a myriad of products from sorbents to batteries for electronic devices.
A sheet of dielectric material (e.g. silicon dioxide, aluminum oxide, etc.) is sandwiched between a silver mirror, which forms the base of the chip, and a hybrid nanomaterial made from silver (Ag) and gold (Au) nanoparticles. This hybrid nanostructure ...
"Solid state lidar" is actually an umbrella term that covers several non-spinning lidar designs. There's an approach called MEMS—microelectromechanical systems—that involves using a tiny mirror to steer a laser beam. Other solid state lidars use a ...
The ideal method involves microfluidics, a kind of liquid assembly line that drips out perfectly sized microparticles, one at a time. University of Pennsylvania engineers have now developed a microfluidic system where more than ten thousand of these ...
STMicroelectronics has announced high-stability MEMS sensors with 10-year product-longevity assurance – to be available later in 2018. Called IIS3DHHC is a 3-axis accelerometer with ±2.5gravity full-scale range, optimised for high measurement resolution ...
