Manufacturing is a fast-paced, constantly evolving, and dynamic environment, and the supply chain is at its heart. For small and medium-sized manufacturers (SMMs), navigating the complexities of the supply chain often feels like a high-stakes balancing act. From juggling fluctuating material costs and delivery delays to meeting shifting market demands, it’s not always easy to maintain smooth…

One major category of the next generation of energy-efficient microelectronic devices and information processing technologies will likely be based on “spintronics,” which leverages both an electron’s charge and its spin—the tiny “up” or “down” magnetic moment carried by every electron. Now, a relatively new subset of spintronics has sprung up, known as magnonics, which harnesses the collective…
