On the hunt for ultra-thin materials using data mining Posted: 10 Mar 2022 08:51 AM PST Two-dimensional (2D) materials possess extraordinary properties. They usually consist of atomic layers that are only a few nanometers thick and are particularly good at conducting heat and electricity, for instance. To the astonishment of many scientists, it recently became known that 2D materials can also exist on the basis of certain metal oxides. These oxides are of great interest in areas such as nanoelectronics applications. A research team has now succeeded in predicting twenty-eight representatives of this new class of materials by using data-driven methods. |
A first step towards quantum algorithms: Minimizing the guesswork of a quantum ensemble Posted: 10 Mar 2022 08:51 AM PST A quantum ensemble -- a set of quantum states with their corresponding probabilities -- is essential to the encoding of classical information for transmission over quantum channels. But receivers must be able to 'guess' the transmitted quantum state, incurring a cost called 'guesswork.' Recently, researchers have derived analytical solutions of the guesswork problem for when the ensemble is subject to a finite set of conditions. The results constitute a first step towards future algorithms for quantum software. |
Roadmap for finding new functional porous materials Posted: 10 Mar 2022 08:43 AM PST A recent study has revealed how future structures of MOPs can be predicted and designed at the molecular level. The discovery of new structures holds tremendous promise for accessing advanced functional materials in energy and environmental applications. |
Robot that seems to convey emotion while reading Posted: 10 Mar 2022 07:00 AM PST Researchers have created a robot with an internal weight that can give the impression of conveying emotions while reading text messages. It can also remind users to not get upset, which may help them cope with unpleasant information. |
Molecules, rare earths, and light: Innovative platform for quantum computers and communications Posted: 09 Mar 2022 08:10 AM PST Communication between quantum systems depends on their ability to effectively interact with light.
