This correspondence between brain state and brain responsiveness (statedependent responses) is outlined at different scales from the cellular and circuit level, to the mesoscale and macroscale level.

We recently saw how certain audio power amplifiers can be used as oscillators. This Design Idea shows how those same parts can be used for simple amplitude modulation, which is trickier than it might ...

Abstract: Starting from the theoretical equations and ideal characteristics of a diode, a simple equation-based rectifier model has been developed through some approximations. It comprises basic ...

This paper explores how diverse forms of inhibition impact firing rates in models for cortical circuits. In particular, the paper studies how the network operating point affects the balance of direct ...

The local thermal conductivity in certain oxides can be precisely defined by a voltage-biased AFM tip, a new CiQUS study shows Overheating in electronic devices affects how it works and how long it ...

Researchers from the Shibaura Institute of Technology have developed a new technique to estimate modulation amplitude accurately and determine spatial resolution without additional devices. This study ...

TOKYO & NEW YORK & DÜSSELDORF, Germany--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Robotics manufacturers developing the next generation of devices need precise torque control, compact system design, and parts that generate ...
