MIT researchers propose a new approach to making qubits, the basic units in quantum computing, and controlling them to read and write data. The method is based on measuring and controlling the spins of atomic nuclei, using beams of light from two lasers of slightly different colors.
Researchers find they can take somatic skin cells from pigs, program them into iPSCs and then inject them back into the same animal to treat the disease.
MIT engineers reveal a novel discovery in semiconductors, well-known materials that have been the subject of intensive study for over 100 years due to their numerous applications in electronic devices.
An MIT team reports a giant response of semiconductors to light and explains the atomic origins of the phenomenon. The materials’ stiffness increases up to 40 percent in the reversible effect.
MIT researchers find much of the damage inside nuclear reactors is so small that it has eluded previous tests. Their new tool provides a way to directly measure this damage, potentially opening a path for the safe operation of nuclear power plants far beyond their present licensed lifetimes.
