Intrinsically stretchable electronics is rapidly emerging as a transformative platform for next-generation electronics, offering novel form factors and enhanced capabilities. Herein, we report high-performance intrinsically stretchable thin-film transistors based on two-dimensional semiconducting flakes. Our n-type molybdenum disulfide transistors exhibit a maximum field-effect mobility up to ...
Battery research is focusing on lithium chemistries so much that one could imagine that the battery future lies solely in lithium. There are good reasons to be optimistic as lithium-ion is, in many ways, superior to other chemistries. Applications are growing and are encroaching into markets that previously were solidly held by lead acid, such as standby and load leveling. Many satellites are ...

This text is for developers that have an intuitive knowledge of what database indexes are, but don’t necessarily know how they work internaly, what are the tradeoffs associated with indexes, what are the types of indexes provided by postgres and how you can use some of its more advanced options to make them more optimized for your use case. Indexes are special database objects primarily ...
Grateful acknowledgement made to the several former Apple employees who materially contributed to this entry. This article wouldn't have been possible without you! This is an Apple prototype ROM I am ashamed to admit I found in my own box of junk from various Apple Network Server parts someone at Apple Austin sent me in 2003. The 1996 Apple Network Server is one of Apple's more ...
