Researchers find a way to check that quantum computers return accurate answers

“Quantum computers become ever more powerful, but how can we be sure that the answers they return are accurate? A team of physicists from Vienna, Innsbruck, Oxford, and Singapore solves this problem by letting quantum computers check each other. Quantum …

Researchers Realize Measurement Beyond Standard Quantum Limit with Nitrogen-vacancy Centers in Diamond

“Measurement is an important means of human cognition of nature and many measurements are limited by standard quantum limit (SQL). SQL is defined as the measured noise levels set by quantum mechanics. Quantum entanglement can be used to beat SQL …

Rice physicists find ‘magnon’ origins in 2D magnet

“Topological feature could prove useful for encoding information in electron spins Rice physicists have confirmed the topological origins of magnons, magnetic features they discovered three years ago in a 2D material that could prove useful for encoding information in the …

Samsung Brings Advanced Ultra-Fine Pixel Technologies to New Mobile Image Sensors

“Samsung Electronics, a world leader in advanced semiconductor technology, today introduced the ISOCELL HP1, the industry’s first 200-megapixel (MP) image sensor with 0.64μm pixels, and ISOCELL GN5, the first image sensor to adopt all-directional focusing Dual Pixel Pro …

Scientists develop an energy harvesting technology based on ferromagnetic resonance

“Osaka City University succeeds in capturing energy generated through electromotive force from a ferromagnetic metal thin film under ferromagnetic resonance Summary Researchers have succeeded in storing electricity with the voltage generated from ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) using a nanometer-thin magnetic film …

Scientists Discover a New Type of Infrared Polaritons at the Surface of Bulk Crystals

“An international team has reported in Nature the first observation of ghost polaritons, which are a new form of surface waves carrying nanoscale light strongly coupled with material oscillations and featuring highly collimated propagation properties. The research team observed these …

Single-chip GaN Gate Driver from STMicroelectronics Boosts Speed, Flexibility, and Integration in Industrial and Home Automation

“STMicroelectronics’ STDRIVEG600 half-bridge gate driver has high current output and 45ns propagation delay, closely matched between high-side and low-side outputs, to handle high-frequency switching of GaN enhancement-mode FETs. Also suitable for driving N-channel silicon MOSFETs at up to 20V, the …

Smart High Level Synthesis (HLS) Tool Suite Enables C++ Based Algorithm Development Using Microchip’s PolarFire® FPGA Platform

“Enhances Accessibility to PolarFire FPGAs for Hardware Acceleration in Edge Compute Systems. The need to combine performance with low power consumption in edge compute applications has driven demand for Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) to be used as power-efficient accelerators …

Space Mission Tests NREL Perovskite Solar Cells

“On a clear night, Kaitlyn VanSant will be able to watch her work whiz by. Knowing the success of her project, however, will have to wait until her tiny, temporary addition to the International Space Station returns to Earth. “My …

Synthetic biology enables microbes to build synthetic muscle

“Would you wear clothing made of muscle fibers? Use them to tie your shoes or even wear them as a belt? It may sound a bit odd, but if those fibers could endure more energy before breaking than cotton, silk …
