Transistor‐Level Activation Functions via Two‐Gate Designs: From Analog Sigmoid and Gaussian Control to Real‐Time Hardware Demonstrations

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 21, 13 April 2026.
Screen gate‐based transistors are presented, enabling tunable analog sigmoid and Gaussian activations. The SA‐transistor improves MRI classification accuracy, while the GA‐transistor supports precise Gaussian kernel tuning for forecasting. Both functions are implemented in a single device, offering compact, energy‐efficient analog AI processing ...

MEMS: The Sensory Nervous System for Embodied AI Robots

open access: yesSmartBot, Volume 1, Issue 3, September 2025.
Embodied AI represents a shift of intelligence from virtual to physical realms, calling for efficient and multimodal perceptual capabilities. This review illustrates how Micro‐Electro‐Mechanical Systems (MEMS) offer miniaturized, low‐power sensors such as those for ranging, inertia, touch, sound and smell, which serve as robotic “sensory organs”.

Single-Shot Waterless Low-Profile Photoacoustic System: Near-Field Volumetric Imaging In Vivo for Blood Vessels Based on Capacitive Micromachined Ultrasonic Transducer (CMUT)

open access: yesSensors, 2019
Intensive research on photoacoustics (PA) for imaging of the living human body, including the skin, vessels, and tumors, has recently been conducted. We propose a PA measurement system based on a capacitive micromachined ultrasonic transducer (CMUT) with

Ultrasound fundamentals and their clinical implications for interventional cytopathologists

open access: yesCytopathology, Volume 36, Issue 4, Page 356-374, July 2025.
Interventional cytopathologists need to know about ultrasound physics and instrumentation to produce an image that faithfully recreates the lesion discovered by the sonographer and diagnosed by the radiologist. A deep quantitative understanding of physics is not required.

Volumetric real-time imaging using a CMUT ring array [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Ultrasonics, Ferroelectrics, and Frequency Control, 2012
A ring array provides a very suitable geometry for forward-looking volumetric intracardiac and intravascular ultrasound imaging. We fabricated an annular 64-element capacitive micromachined ultrasonic transducer (CMUT) array featuring a 10-MHz operating frequency and a 1.27-mm outer radius.
