Metallic hydrogen is one of the rarest materials on Earth, yet more than 80 percent of planets—including Jupiter, Saturn, and hundreds of extrasolar planets—are composed of this exotic form of matter.
Tinkering with a method they helped develop over the last few years, scientists have for the first time measured at the nanometer scale the characteristic patterns of folds that give proteins their three-dimensional shape in water.
Researchers have shown that a chip-based device measuring a millimeter square could be used to generate quantum-based random numbers at gigabit per second speeds.
Opto Diode Corporation, an ITW company, introduces two photodetectors, the AXUV100TF030 and AXUV100TF400, with 100 mm2 active areas and directly deposited thin-film filters for extreme ultraviolet (EUV) detection.
The Casimir force and superconductivity are two well-known quantum effects. Separately, these phenomena have been thoroughly studied. But what happens when you bring the two effects together in a single experiment? For the very first time, researchers at Delft University of Technology have done just that.
A paper published recently in the Journal of Medical Imaging - "DeepLesion: Automated mining of large-scale lesion annotations and universal lesion detection with deep learning," - announced the open availability of the largest CT lesion-image database accessible to the public.
Hitachi Europe Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of Hitachi, Ltd. recently announced that researchers at the Hitachi Cambridge Laboratory (“HCL”), working in collaboration with academic partners at the University of Cambridge, University College London, and CEA-LETI (‘the team’), have successfully demonstrated a highly-sensitive detector to readout information from Si-CMOS based quantum bits (qubits).
Critical Link, LLC, experts in image sensor integration, system-on-chip (SoC) and field-programmable gate array (FPGA) designs, vision protocols, and signal processing, introduces the MitySOM-A10S-DSC processor board for the next generation of embedded imaging applications.
Xanadu and the Creative Destruction Lab (CDL) at the University of Toronto's Rotman School of Management are pleased to announce a technology partnership. Ventures in CDL's Quantum Machine Learning (QML) program will receive access and hands-on technical support to Xanadu's Strawberry Fields, an open-source quantum software package featuring a quantum machine learning toolbox for quantum computing built on TensorFlow.
By doping alumina crystals with neodymium ions, engineers at the University of California San Diego have developed a new laser material that is capable of emitting ultra-short, high-power pulses—a combination that could potentially yield smaller, more powerful lasers with superior thermal shock resistance, broad tunability and high-duty cycles.
