Analog computers are systems that perform computations by manipulating physical quantities such as electrical current, that ...

Look at almost any circuit, and it’s nearly sure that there will be a capacitor included in it. These two-terminal electrical components rank alongside resistors.

Rough PCB surfaces increase the signal’s path length. This is due to the skin effect, which occurs because high-frequency ...

This video explains how inductors work and how they store energy in a magnetic field when electrical current flows through them. Inductors are passive components used to resist sudden changes in ...

Abstract: This study introduces a novel method to rapidly estimate the circulating current between the strands in electrical machines. By utilizing a mesh-based magnetic equivalent circuit (M-MEC), ...

This video explains how capacitors work and why they are essential in modern electronics. Capacitors store and release ...

Researchers at the UW have created a recyclable, flexible and self-healing composite material that could replace traditional ...

Abstract: We design and experimentally demonstrate an ultra-compact dual-mode mode-division multiplexing (MDM) photonic integrated circuit (PIC), which supports on-chip optical signal mode-order-based ...

Advances in cellular immunotherapy promise new treatments for conditions such as cancer, autoimmune disease, and heart disease. While engineered cells have the ability to recognize clinically relevant ...

Quantum mechanics is usually described as the science of the very small — of electrons, atoms, and photons that behave in ways that defy the rules of everyday experience. Yet one of the most striking ...

The takeaway: The 2025 Nobel Prize in Physics recognizes not only the ingenuity of the three US scientists but also the foundation their work laid for technologies still in development. Four decades ...

Nobel Prize 2025 in Physics: Three scientists — John Clarke, Michel H. Devoret, and John M. Martinis — have been awarded the 2025 Nobel Prize in Physics for their groundbreaking work on quantum ...
