IEEE Spectrum – Quantum computers have the potential to solve seemingly intractable problems in no time flat. But a big stumbling block on the path to practical quantum computing is figuring out how ...

While vacuum electronic devices have largely been superseded over much of consumer electronics, there’s one place where they can still be found for now. The cavity magnetron is a power RF oscillator ...

Scientists at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have reported a breakthrough in their research in improving oscillators. Last week NIST said its researchers had developed a new ...

This project aims to develop a quantum interface that connects superconducting qubits with photons for communication to realize a large-scale distributed superconducting quantum computer. In this R&D ...

This article appeared in Microwaves & RF and has been published here with permission. The proliferation of 4G LTE networks, the deployment of new 5G networks, and the pervasive nature of Wi-Fi are ...

At a time when RF systems face an exploding demand for bandwidth, clock stability is one of the key design considerations in high-speed data transmission. While ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Metamaterials (MMs) are those materials whose properties are mainly based on their design and structure, rather than the actual materials used to realize them [1]. Sensors based ...

If you've ever designed an RF oscillator, you've probably encountered squegging. Sometimes called "motor boating," squegging causes oscillators to start and stop at frequencies much lower than the ...
