Key Points

A new study by researchers at Kaunas University of Technology (KTU) in Lithuania has shown that a good idea alone is not enough for health startups to succeed. What matters most is access to data, health care institutions and funding.

Announce Type: new Abstract: Nonreciprocal systems enable asymmetric energy transport and suppress backscattering, giving rise to unconventional wave phenomena. Here, we show that nonreciprocal cavities based on unidirectional waveguides exhibit a continuous modal spectrum, in contrast to conventional cavities with discrete eigenmodes. Using a ferrite-loaded microwave cavity as an example, we demonstrate that enforcing unidirectionality, by tailoring the waveguide geometry, drives a...

Vertical $\beta$-Ga$_2$O$_3$ Schottky Diodes with Deep-Etch Field Termination using Plasma-free Ga-assisted Etching

Announce Type: new Abstract: A deep-etch field termination strategy using a Ga-assisted plasma-free etching technique in a low-pressure chemical vapor deposition (LPCVD) system is demonstrated for $\beta$-Ga$_2$O$_3$ Schottky barrier diodes (SBDs). The thermally activated etching method provides a plasma-free approach for forming deep mesa terminations while maintaining excellent device integrity. The fabricated diodes exhibit excellent forward conduction characteristics with a turn-on...
