International Iberian Nanotechnology Laboratory (INL) researchers have developed a neuromorphic photonic semiconductor neuron ...

During the first half of the 20th century radio technology was booming, albeit restricted by the vacuum tube technology of the time which made radios cumbersome in size and power needs. The ...

The device, inspired by the way biological neurons process information, has the ability to detect light and convert it into ...

Researchers developed a nanoscale quantum resonant tunnelling diode that mimics a sensory neuron, detecting light, processing data, and converting it into electrical signals in one device.

A bias voltage applied between the tip and the sample causes electrons to tunnel across the gap, creating a measurable current. The tip's position is meticulously adjusted using piezoelectric controls ...
