When it comes to inspiring physics teachers and students, no-one can quite match US science-education guru Clifford Swartz, argues Robert P Crease Clifford Swartz seems to be a paradox. He teaches ...

Analog Devices references guard shields around their op amps as well as the printed circuit traces [1]. These traces are called guard rings; they circle and shield critical circuits. Another ...

Challenges like higher selectivity and precise etching are critical for angstrom-scale IC production. Advanced RF pulsing and plasma control enhance precision in sub-nanometer processes. New impedance ...
