New UCLA Engineering Studies Aim to Slow Battery Aging While Idle
Most batteries spend more than 70% of their lifetime at rest. Yet few studies have examined calendar aging, which is how a battery degrades when it is neither charging nor being used.

UCLA Engineers Shrink Powerful Terahertz Systems onto a Single Semiconductor Chip
Terahertz waves have major potential in high-speed communication, imaging, security screening and sensing, but are still underused due to complex and bulky systems
