Teledyne e2v HiRel is screening 650V 60A GaN power transistors to NASA Level 1 flow for space use, and has released a 100V high-speed GaN or silicon gate driver. The transistors (right) are both enhancement-mode, top-side-cooled GaN-on-silicon hemts. “The parts go through NASA Level 1 screening flow and can be brought up to full Level 1 conformance ...

Researchers in Illinois have added seven new molecules to the four usually found in DNA, expanding the palette for potential data storage applications. DNA contains four nucleotides: adenine, guanine, cytosine and thymine (aka A, G, C and T), which arrange into the famed double helix. The patterns they form store the code for making living ...
