Engineers usually have access to signal and function generators, as well as frequency counters and oscilloscopes, but they may not have access to capacitance or inductance meters. Using the test setup ...

Exocytosis and endocytosis are ubiquitous eukaryotic processes engaged in myriad cellular functions. Essential roles of exocytosis include the release of secretory vesicle cargo and the delivery of ...

Capacitive sensors are found in a wide range of equipment, from consumer electronics to industrial/process control. Touch buttons are increasingly found in lamps and dimmers. Motion detectors can ...

AVX Corp. has expanded its range of high reliability C0G (NP0) dielectric multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs). Available in case sizes spanning 01005 to 2225, voltages up to 500 V, and capacitance ...

C-V testing has long been used to determine a variety of semiconductor parameters on many different devices and structures, ranging from MOSCAPs, MOSFETs, bipolar junction transistors, and JFETs to ...

A research team led by Prof. Huang Xingjiu from the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences constructed a highly stable solid contact calcium ion-selective electrode.

R = resistance — the difficulty an electrical current has in passing through a conducting material. C = capacitance — the degree to which an insulating material holds a charge. RC delay = the delay in ...

Scanning microwave microscopy (SMM) is a scanning probe method that uses the S11 parameter to calculate the local tip-sample microwave impedance. This impedance is affected by the sample’s local ...
