Future of Data is Graphene Indeed, scientists are reaching the end of the road for certain technologies for high-speed data transfer and are seeking new materials for the future of components for the processors responsible for this aspect of our ever more connected world. A material like graphene has the potential to be one of those materials. The material is especially attractive because it works very well for exceptionally high electronic frequencies, extending into the technologically important terahertz (THz) range where most conventional electronic materials fail, researchers noted. Prio...

Bottom row: Laura Huang, Meghana Kamineni, Miki Hansen, Olivia Wynne Houck, Teis Jorgensen, Tony Terrasa Previous image Next image Twelve MIT student affiliates have won fellowships for the Fulbright 2021-22 grant year. Their host country destinations include Brazil, Iceland, India, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, South Korea, Spain, and Taiwan, where they will conduct research, earn a graduate degree, or teach English. Sponsored by the U.S. Department of State, the Fulbright U.S. Student Program offers opportunities for American student scholars in over 160 countries. Last fall, ...

Finding Light in Dark Atomic Clouds May 10, 2021• Physics 14, 69 Researchers have prepared and manipulated subradiant states—in which collective effects slow down the decay of excited atoms—in a dense atomic cloud. Figure 1: (Left) An atom in an excited state eventually—unavoidably—decays to its ground state, releasing a photon. (Right) In a collection of excited atoms separated by less than the transition wavelength, destructive interference in their photon emission prevents their collective decay from the excited state ( e) to the ground state ( g).(Left) An atom in an exci...

 Revolutionary changes in communications and devices increasingly likely Graphene chips faster than silicon chips and use less energy Applications in telecoms, data centres, 5G, IoT, medicine, autonomous vehicles are just the start It's all down to invisible but scalable micro-ribbons For years now, scientists and manufacturing companies have evangelised graphene as a wonder material that will revolutionise all aspects of electronic communications and devices. Graphene is a 2-dimensional crystalline allotrope of carbon. Carbon is an element that exists in more than one crystalline form or 'a...

How can large amounts of data be transferred or processed as quickly as possible? One key to this could be graphene. The ultra-thin material is only one atomic layer thick, and the electrons it co ...
