Researchers from Osaka University have found a way to bond copper foil to notoriously slippery polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). The aim is to improve the bandwidth of PCBs. “Copper is the go-to wiring material for printed wiring boards because it is highly conductive, so the focus for improvement is to decrease transmission loss from the support material,” ...

Researchers at the Korea Institute of Science and Technology (KIST) have micromachined a multi-functional brain chip with microelectrodes for recording electrical activity, microfluidic channels for sampling extracellular fluid, and a microfluidic interface chip for multiple drug delivery and sample isolation. The cerebrospinal fluid, which is tested for neurotrasmitters, is extracted at a low pressure to minimise channel blockages from prolonged use. ...
