The obvious way to continue shrinking chip features would be to use beams of electrons to transfer mask patterns to layers of photoresist. But unlike light, which can shine through a mask and expose ...

My son and I decided to try to make our own computer. We bought a bunch of parts from Newegg and have now assembled it. It seemed to turn on for a while, but now won't. We tested the power supply, and ...

LONDON — Researchers at Duke University (Durham, North Carolina)have used DNA [deoxyribonucleic acid] — the double-helix carrier of genetic information — to create self-assembling logic circuits that ...

It is possible to classify images simply by analysing the way that trillions of DNA molecules in a test tube connect together into different shapes. Conventional computers must be fully assembled ...

MIT has devised a way of creating complex, self-assembling 3D nanostructures of wires and junctions. While self-assembling structures have been made from polymers before, this is the first time that ...
