The U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) has advanced its THREADS program to Phase II, aiming to significantly improve RF device power density and thermal management. Led by BAE Systems' FAST Labs, the initiative targets a fivefold increase in power density and an eightfold reducti

The U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and BAE Systems are advancing a program called THREADS (Technologies for Heat Removal in Electronics at the Device Scale) to address thermal limitations in next-generation gallium nitride (GaN) electronics. While GaN offers superior power de

DARPA's 'Rads to Watts' initiative aims to develop radiovoltaic devices powered by nuclear waste, potentially enabling next-generation drones with up to 30 years of continuous operation. Led by Morgan State University and involving partners like Northrop Grumman and PNNL, the project focuses on tran
