Beyond wires: Bubble technology powers next-generation electronics

Researchers at Yokohama National University have developed a laser-based bubble printing technique that creates ultra-flexible liquid metal circuits, overcoming traditional wiring limitations. The resulting wiring lines are incredibly thin, conductive, and highly flexible, with potential applications in wearable technology and healthcare.

A fragment of human brain, mapped

A team of Harvard researchers, led by Jeff Lichtman, has created the largest synaptic-resolution, 3D reconstruction of a piece of human brain to date. The dataset contains 1,400 terabytes of data on neural connections in a tiny piece of human temporal cortex.

Apple iPhone 17 Pro delivers top performance and advanced cameras for field documentation, data collection, and secure research communications.

An electrifying improvement in copper conductivity

Researchers at DOE's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory have discovered that adding a small amount of solid carbon to copper boosts its ability to conduct electricity. The findings could lead to more efficient electricity distribution, as well as more efficient motors for electric vehicles and industrial equipment.

A golden ticket to smaller electronics

A team of researchers at Osaka University developed a new method for direct three-dimensional bonding of copper electrodes using silver, enabling reliable connections at low temperatures without external pressure. The process can be performed under gentle conditions, resulting in permanent connections as small as 20 micrometers.

Sky & Telescope Pocket Sky Atlas, 2nd Edition is a durable star atlas for planning sessions, identifying targets, and teaching celestial navigation.

Home's electrical wiring acts as antenna to receive low-power sensor data

Researchers at the University of Washington have developed a system that uses home electrical wiring as an antenna to receive low-power sensor data. The technology, called Sensor Nodes Utilizing Powerline Infrastructure (SNUPI), allows for wireless sensors that can transmit information wirelessly and run for decades on a single battery.

Study indicates that brain wiring is largely inborn

Researchers found evidence that brain circuitry is present and well-formed at birth, contradicting the long-held view that experience shapes the brain's wiring. The study used innovative surgical techniques to reveal neural connections in newborn ferrets' brains.

FAA funds Northwestern research on aging wiring

Researchers at Northwestern University are developing a non-destructive test to detect small flaws, latent flaws, and general degradation in commercial aircraft wiring. The FAA is funding the $450,000 grant, which aims to improve aircraft safety by identifying critical degradation levels of aging wiring without removal from its location.
