MIT Researchers Create Terahertz Graphene Chips

Leave a Comment / Electronics News Updates / Ibrar Ayyub

PORTLAND, Ore. – Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) researchers have sandwiched high-mobility graphene sheets between two ferroelectric materials, resulting in terahertz (THz) frequency operation that can directly operate on optical signals. MIT predicts that the new material stack will lead to memories that are 10-times denser than today and to electrical devices that can directly […]

Legged Squad Support System (LS3): DARPA’s four-legged robot with voice recognition (video)

Leave a Comment / News / Ibrar Ayyub

(Phys.org)—Today’s dismounted warfighter can be saddled with more than 100 pounds of gear, resulting in physical strain, fatigue and degraded performance. Reducing the load on dismounted warfighters has become a major point of emphasis for defense research and development, because the increasing weight of individual equipment has a negative impact on warfighter readiness.
