Journal ArticleDOI
Co-designing electronics with microfluidics for more sustainable cooling.
TL;DR: By removing the need for large external heat sinks, this approach should enable the realization of very compact power converters integrated on a single chip, potentially extending Moore's law and greatly reducing the energy consumption in cooling of electronics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Large-Area High-Performance Flexible Pressure Sensor with Carbon Nanotube Active Matrix for Electronic Skin
TL;DR: A large-area high-performance flexible pressure sensor built on an active matrix of 16 × 16 carbon nanotube thin-film transistors (CNT TFTs) that exhibits superior flexible TFT performance with high mobility and large current density, along with a high device yield of nearly 99% over 4 inch sample area.
Journal ArticleDOI

Jianshi Tang,Qing Cao,George S. Tulevski,Keith A. Jenkins,Luca Nela,Damon B. Farmer,Shu-Jen Han +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that high-performance carbon nanotube TFTs and complementary circuits can be fabricated on flexible polyimide substrates using a high-yield, scalable process.
Journal ArticleDOI
Performance of GaN Power Devices for Cryogenic Applications Down to 4.2 K
TL;DR: In this article, the performance of four commercial gallium-nitride (GaN) power devices in a wide temperature range between 400 and 4.2 K was investigated and compared, showing the promising potential of the GaN technology for low-temperature applications and providing precious insights to properly design power systems operating under cryogenic temperatures and maximize their efficiency.
