Memristors: Beyond 0s and 1s

07 Sep 2026 under Features

The fourth circuit element that “remembers” Modern computing is built on a decades-old design where data is stored and processed in different parts of the system. Every time a computer runs an app or loads a file, data has to flow back and forth between the memory unit and the processing unit, creating a bottleneck […]


Achieving Wafer-scale Growth of 2D Magnetic Materials

28 May 2026 under Focus

In a major advance, researchers at IISc have devised a method to grow high-quality 2D magnetic materials (2D-MMs) over centimetre-scale wafers. Earlier approaches in the field were limited to growing micrometre-sized flakes. This advance paves the way for their integration into next-generation electronics and spintronics materials used in hard drives and sensors. 2D-MMs can retain […]
