Nevada National Security Sites’ Electromagnetic Spectrum Management System (ESMS) offers a solution for controlling radio frequencies in sensitive areas. It identifies and “manages” unwanted signals, effectively silencing them while allowing authorized communications to pass through. This is achieved by removing the modulation of hostile signals, rendering them unintelligible while preserving the intended data and voice communication…
Phononic breakthrough paves the way for compact, high-efficiency chips and enhanced quantum computing capabilities
One of the technological hurdles limiting the future of wireless technology is the reliance on bulky, power-hungry radio frequency processors. These processors require an unwieldy blend of piezoelectric- and transistor-based components, which add bulk and sap valuable energy. But a promising study published in Nature Materials offers a potential solution in phononics, a field of study that harnesses…
