Scientists at Germany's Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems ISE have demonstrated a triple-junction solar cell with a perovskite-perovskite-silicon subcell configuration. They said the cell ...

Genetic engineers can design and assemble sophisticated gene circuits to program cells with new functions, but important signaling molecules can become diluted as these cells grow and divide, causing ...

Bootstrap circuits are widely used in dc-dc converters to serve as top-side bias voltage supplies. After explaining how bootstrap circuits work, this article will show how versatile they can be. One ...

As scientists work toward making genetically altered bacteria create living "circuits" to produce a myriad of useful proteins and chemicals, they have logically assumed that the single-celled ...

Over the past few decades, we have seen remarkable advances in technologies for reading (sequencing) and writing (synthesizing) DNA. These technologies have enabled us to decipher disease. Now they ...

Researchers have identified the two key circuits that control a cell's ability to adapt to changes in its environment, a finding that could have applications ranging from diabetes and autoimmune ...

Cells in nature have to respond to environmental stimuli with a complex repertoire of responses. In effect, they make computations that require processing that is both analog, like adjusting to a ...

Battery cell open circuit voltage (OCV) is an important measurement made on the cell during manufacturing to determine cell performance quickly and reliably. Download our application note to learn why ...

It is easy enough to make software do what you want it to. You could tell your email client to recognise and immediately delete any unwanted messages – say, any from your mother-in-law that contain ...

Newly decoded brain circuits make memories more stable as part of learning, according to a study led by NYU Langone Health ...

Biologists have created a protein unlike any found in nature, with the power to toggle a cell’s functions on and off. The scientists linked the artificial proteins together into circuits and ...
