RIT recently completed a weeklong training in integrated circuit fabrication technology in support of Finger Lakes Economic Development initiatives. The training about semiconductor industry processes ...

For years I’ve been trying to wrap my mind around how silicon chips actually work. How does a purposefully contaminated shard of glass wield control over electrons? Every once in a while, someone ...

You’re probably familiar with the little black boxes nestled neatly inside your favorite devices. With their diminutive size and unassuming characteristics, it can be hard to believe these vessels are ...

To make stretchable electronics, engineers must start with materials that can tolerate strain. That’s why the ability to endure being stretched is a sought-after quality in flexible electronics, ...

The miniaturization of electronic systems and the diffusion of components that generate a lot of heat make the role of thermal analysis more and more important as a tool to guarantee the good ...

As the scale of integrated circuits (ICs) continues to shrink, the lack of practical methods for imaging their complex internal structure has hampered feedback for quality control and product ...

What can you do if your circuit repair diagnosis indicates an open circuit within an integrated circuit (IC)? Your IC got too hot and internal wiring has come loose. You could replace the IC, sure.
