Engineers enlist AI to help scale up advanced solar cell manufacturing

“Perovskite materials would be superior to silicon in PV cells, but manufacturing such cells at scale is a huge hurdle. Machine learning can help. Perovskites are a family of materials that are currently the leading contender to potentially replace today …

FAMU-FSU researchers improve 3D printing quality by sharing data among machines

“Researchers at the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering are improving 3D printing technology by teaching machines to learn from each other. In a new study published in the IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) Transactions on Automation Science and …

First integrated laser on lithium niobate chip

“Research paves the way for high-powered telecommunication systems For all the recent advances in integrated lithium niobate photonic circuits — from frequency combs to frequency converters and modulators — one big component has remained frustratingly difficult to integrate: lasers. Long haul telecommunication …

In race to build quantum computing hardware, silicon begins to shine

“In race to build quantum computing hardware, silicon begins to shine Research conducted by Princeton University physicists is paving the way for the use of silicon-based technologies in quantum computing, especially as quantum bits – the basic units of quantum computers …

Intelligent traffic lights for optimal traffic flow

“Traffic jams and long waiting times at junctions in city centres are part of our everyday lives - be it as pedestrians, public transport users or motorists. ETH spin-​off Lumisera promises a significantly improved traffic flow with self-​regulated traffic …

Intense laser light modifies the pairing of electrons

“The quantum-mechanical exchange interaction between electrons, a consequence of the Pauli exclusion principle, can be specifically modified with intense infrared light fields on time scales of a few femtoseconds, as time-resolved experiments on sulfur hexafluoride molecules show. This finding lights …

Introducing the Arduino secure boot

“To increase the range of features and firmware safety of Arduino products, we decided to release a new bootloader based on MCUboot. Here is a quick introduction on everything you need to know about it. Introduction to MCUboot MCUboot is …

Joystick-operated robot could help surgeons treat stroke remotely

“The system could provide teleoperated endovascular treatment to patients during the critical time window after a stroke begins. MIT engineers have developed a telerobotic system to help surgeons quickly and remotely treat patients experiencing a stroke or aneurysm. With a …

Maintaining the structure of gold and silver in alloys

“EPFL engineers have developed a low-temperature annealing method that maintains the structure of gold and silver when the two metals are combined in an alloy. Their discovery will prove useful in the manufacture of contact lenses, holographic optical elements and …
