Researchers from the French Nanoscience and Cryogenics Institute (INAC) and Spintec have developed a new logic circuit that combines CMOS and MRAM technology. This patented invention uses MRAM from Crocus Technology and marks Europe’s first working demonstrator of its kind. MRAM offers two key benefits: it’s non-volatile and it doesn’t need a power supply when […] >>

Until now, electronic tongues—devices used to identify dissolved substances in liquids—have been hard to make because each of the tongues’ chemical receptors (between 10 and 30) had to be synthesized independently. But scientists at the French Nanoscience and Cryogenics Institute (INAC) have found a way to sidestep this lengthy process by using the combined response […] >>
