People Counting and Positioning Using Low‐Resolution Infrared Images for FeFET‐Based In‐Memory Computing

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
In this work, low‐resolution infrared imaging is combined with a 28 nm FeFET IMC architecture to enable compact, energy‐efficient edge inference. MLC FeFET devices are experimentally characterized, and controlled multi‐level current accumulation is validated at crossbar array level.

Cavity Microelectrode Arrays for Electrical Recordings From Neurons

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Microelectrode arrays (MEAs) are used to study electrophysiological activity. However, their signals are small with high noise. By adding a 100‐nanometer‐high cavity above the electrode, which reduces impedance without affecting resolution, we improve signal quality.

The Power of Unity: Collective Action and Smallholder Agricultural Performance in West Africa

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We analyze the impact of collective action through farmer‐based organizations (FBOs) on smallholders' farm performance and income inequality in Ghana, Benin, The Gambia, and Mali. We find that FBO membership increases cereal yield in Ghana and The Gambia, legume yield in Mali, ruminant numbers in Benin and The Gambia, and total farm income in ...
