Nanofabrication deals with the fabrication of materials and structures at nanoscale. The essential requirements of a nanofabrication are a clean room which is devoid of particles and contaminations and also a specially designed equipment facility for thin film deposition, patterning and etching. We are all familiar with integrated chips (ICs). ICs are manufactured through nanofabrication …
If you have some raw data and want to convert in into meaningful insight, feature engineering in machine learning is one of the best tools to help you. Imagine a real-life situation where you want to know how frequently a customer order food from your restaurant in order to offer best customer service. In such …
Supercomputers are a class of high-performance systems comprised of multiple central processing units (CPUs) in order to achieve high computational rates. They achieve fastest performance at a given time by using vector arithmetic which enables the system to operate on pairs of lists of numbers instead of simple pairs of numbers. For instance, if we …
Dream for a computer storage device which performs as fast as static RAM (SRAM), delivers the cost effectiveness of dynamic RAM (DRAM), promises the non-volatility of flash memory, combined with added benefits of longevity, denser storage, durability and stability. Let’s discuss whether spin transfer torque based Random access Memory (STT-RAM) devices can help to realize …

Why does it need to look for an alternate cooling technology? Cooling appliances based on thermodynamic cycle till 1995 used to produce many toxic components Chloroflurocarbon CFC), Hydrochloroflurocarbon (HCFC), potent greenhouse gases (GHG) and other ozone depleting substances (ODC). After gradual prohibition of such gases, the cooling appliances till date producing HFCs which have no …
What calls for an advanced technology based on electron spin? Electronics use the property of electrons called charge to encode information. One way computers store information is by using RAM. RAM is comprised of billions of capacitors and to store information computer sends a large number of electrons which are absorbed by the capacitor plate …
Nanotechnology deals with the science of building small, but why do we talk about such small things? Well, they ultimately constitute the world we live in and we can explore fascinating things with them, literally, it can shape the world around us. Properties of materials change due to quantum effects when they are made small, …

Throughout my academics when I come across the term tensor, my brain send reflex that “something complicated, take a break, relax and read later”. Often, I gave a thought, Am I reading it Tensor or Terror!! Physicists use Tensors to describe properties of systems which vary with direction called anisotropic systems whereas for mathematicians Tensors …
