mm-wave 5G: beam forming technologies, architectures, and ICs

The shift to 5G is motivated by the access to the higher bandwidths, lower latencies, and higher data rates which are available at higher frequencies. This shift has already begun although the current and near-term phase is about the adoption of sub-6GHz 5G.

Ultra-low power chips make small robots more capable

An ultra-low power hybrid chip inspired by the brain could help give palm-sized robots the ability to collaborate and learn from their experiences.

Engineering developments for energy harvesting devices

Lorandt Fölkel, Technology Ambassador for Würth Elektronik eiSos describes the products on display at the IDTechEx Show! Europe 2018.

Route to flexible electronics made from exotic materials

Engineers have developed a technique to fabricate ultrathin semiconducting films made from a host of exotic materials other than silicon. To demonstrate their technique, the researchers fabricated flexible films made from gallium arsenide, gallium nitride, and lithium fluoride — materials that exhibit better performance than silicon but until now have been prohibitively expensive to produce in functional devices.
