Magnetic nanocomposites could help shrink the components that power computer chips

Source: Phys.org · Published 2 Nov 2026, 22:20

When you think about making computer chips better, you probably think about transistors. My colleagues and I focused on a less visible part of the problem: the components that deliver power to those transistors. A chip needs more than electricity. It needs electricity supplied at the right voltage, with fluctuations kept under control. Making the hardware that does this smaller is an important…
