Spin-based quantum computers have the potential to tackle difficult mathematical problems that cannot be solved using ordinary computers, but many problems remain in making these machines scalable.
Scientists at Tokyo Tech proposed new quasi-1D materials for potential spintronic applications, an upcoming technology that exploits the spin of electrons. They performed simulations to demonstrate the spin properties of these materials and explained the mechanisms behind their behavior.
Hydrogen fuel cells are a promising technology for producing clean and renewable energy, but the cost and activity of their cathode materials is a major challenge for commercialization. Many fuel cells require expensive platinum-based catalysts—substances that initiate and speed up chemical reactions—to help convert renewable fuels into electrical energy.
For the first time, researchers have used tiny gears made of germanium to generate a vortex of twisted light that turns around its axis of travel much like a corkscrew.
Volatile weather conditions, humidity, dirty and dusty environments, as well as exposure to or immersion in water, are all conditions that can cause the failure of electrical components.Transducers USA offers a unique selection of input and output audio devices, which are IP rated to be waterproof and dust tight.
A team of researchers from Russia, Great Britain, Japan, and Italy has created a graphene-based terahertz detector. The study was published in Nature Communications.
Syntec Optics, a leading optics and photonics manufacturer located in Rochester NY, announced today that it is expanding its manufacturing expertise used for missile guides and night-vision goggles to surgical instruments and aviation datacom.
Researchers have demonstrated a new technique that can store more optical data in a smaller space than was previously possible on-chip. This technique improves upon the phase-change optical memory cell, which uses light to write and read data, and could offer a faster, more power-efficient form of memory for computers.
Opto Diode Corporation, an ITW company, introduces the first in a series of ultraviolet light-emitting diodes (UVLEDs), the OD-265-001. The new, narrow-spectral output UVLED is designed for robust and long-lifetime use. The device features include total power output of 0.53 mW (minimum) and 0.68 mW (typical), with peak emission wavelengths at 260 nm (minimum), 265 nm (typical) and 270 nm (maximum). Emission in this wavelength range makes these devices suitable for disinfection applications.
