Thin films are two-dimensional (2D) material layers deposited on a bulk substrate, possessing a thickness of a few nanometers to impart properties that cannot be realized by base materials. The unique ...

From sustainable energy to quantum computers: high-temperature superconductors have the potential to revolutionize today's technologies. Despite intensive research, however, we still lack the ...

This paper defines a method to measure the chip die pad capacitance using time delay reflectometry (TDR). This method is useful for measuring the low-value capacitance that is present at the end of a ...

Iridium-based catalysts are widely used in green energy technologies, but existing methods to measure active sites on iridium catalysts are imprecise. New research from Northwestern Engineering’s ...

In the technology industry, competition remains fierce for talent. As companies struggle to usher in top talent, some turn to outsourced tech firms and independent contractors to get work completed.

When folks speak about fuel economy, quoting IFTA, pen-to-paper, dash readouts and daily vs. 30-day, do we really understand what the data is reporting? These are all different, and rarely will they ...

Quasars are extraordinarily distant celestial objects that throw off a massive amount of light, and astrophysicists use them to probe cosmological theories. In some cases, astrophysicists have used ...

The most common method of measuring blood pressure is often inaccurate, a new study has found. This could mean people at risk of serious conditions such as heart disease are missing diagnosis and ...
