A new method automatically describes, in natural language, what the individual components of a neural network do. Neural networks are sometimes called black boxes because,…
Using ultrathin materials to reduce the size of superconducting qubits may pave the way for personal-sized quantum devices. Like the transistors in a classical computer,…
High-resolution recordings of electrical signals from the surface of the brain could improve surgeons’ ability to remove brain tumors and treat epilepsy, and could open…
A large, unconventional anomalous Hall resistance in a new magnetic semiconductor in the absence of large-scale magnetic ordering has been demonstrated by Tokyo Tech materials…
Technique Tunes Into Graphene Nanoribbons’ Electronic Potential Ever since graphene – a thin carbon sheet just one-atom thick – was discovered more than 15 years…
An international team of researchers has used a unique tool inserted into an electron microscope to create a transistor that’s 25,000 times smaller than the…
Revolutionary new electronic components can be adapted to perform very different tasks – a technology perfectly suited for artificial intelligence. Normally, computer chips consist of…
A levitating vehicle might someday explore the moon, asteroids, and other airless planetary surfaces. Aerospace engineers at MIT are testing a new concept for a…
A new fabrication technique produces low-voltage, power-dense artificial muscles that improve the performance of flying microrobots. When it comes to robots, bigger isn’t always better….
Newly proven physics opens chalcogenide glasses to applications at visible and ultraviolet wavelengths. Electrical engineers at Duke University have discovered that changing the physical shape…
The new machine-learning system can generate a 3D scene from an image about 15,000 times faster than other methods. Humans are pretty good at looking…
The system could help physicians select the least risky treatments in urgent situations, such as treating sepsis. Sepsis claims the lives of nearly 270,000 people…
A new “common-sense” approach to computer vision enables artificial intelligence that interprets scenes more accurately than other systems do. Computer vision systems sometimes make inferences…
On-chip frequency shifters in the gigahertz range could be used in next generation quantum computers and networks. The ability to precisely control and change properties…
Ruonan Han seeks to push the limits of electronic circuits. Ruonan Han’s research is driving up the speeds of microelectronic circuits to enable new applications…
In a new FLEET theoretical study published recently in Physical Review Letters, the so called ‘smoking gun’ in the search for the topological magnetic monopole —…
Working Through a Mental Bloch Lightspeed is the fastest velocity in the universe. Except when it isn’t. Anyone who’s seen a prism split white light…
