Phishing attacks are cyber-attacks through which criminals trick users into sending them money and sensitive information, or into installing malware on their computer, by sending them deceptive emails or messages. As these attacks have become increasingly widespread,...
Clock distribution networks, also referred to as clock trees, are techniques for distributing clock signals (from a common source) to all the electrical components in a system, ensuring that all elements in a circuit operate in a synchronized fashion. These networks...
Due to their advantageous properties, organic semiconductors could be very promising photocatalysts for producing solar fuels. In fact, these materials can be synthetically tuned to absorb visible light, while simultaneously retaining energy levels that are desirable...
Over the past few decades, technological advances have opened new and exciting possibilities for both remote tourism and the teleoperation of robotic systems. This allowed computer scientists to develop increasingly sophisticated systems that allow humans to virtually...
So far, solar cells based on polycrystalline cadmium selenide telluride (CdSeTe) have exhibited some crucial limitations, despite their low fabrication costs and advantageous qualities. Most notably, these solar cells exhibit higher voltage losses than other mature...
Ising machines are unconventional computer architectures based on physics principles, named after the German physicist Ernst Ising. In recent years, they have been found to be particularly promising tools for solving combinatorial optimization (CO) problems and create...
The idea of creating a spin-based quantum computer using quantum dots was first introduced by Daniel Loss and David Di Vincenzo in 1998. Since then, countless engineers and physicists worldwide have been trying to realize their vision using existing and newly...
In recent decades, machine learning and deep learning algorithms have become increasingly advanced, so much so that they are now being introduced in a variety of real-world settings. In recent years, some computer scientists and electronics engineers have been...
Transistors are electronic components that amplify and control the flow of electricity inside most existing electronic devices. Researchers at Pohang University of Science and Technology and the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China have recently...
Anion exchange membranes (AEMs) are semipermeable fuel cell components that can conduct anions but reject cations and gases. This enables the partition of substances that could chemically react with one another, thus allowing the cells to operate properly.
