A bicycle-car hybrid. 😃

Meet the Bio-Hybrid, a bicycle and car hybrid that offers the freedom and agility of a bike, but the cargo space and weather protection of a small car…

Paper made from grass and weeds. Make those lawns useful. 😃

Write off paper made from trees for good! This super sustainable alternative grows like a weed.

Another way to use fallen leaves. Turn them to paper as well… 😃

This student invented a way to turn fallen leaves headed for the landfill into paper!

Pharma giants and computing titans increasingly partnering on quantum computing.

Theoretically, quantum computers can prove more powerful than any supercomputer. And recent moves from computer giants such as Google and pharmaceutical titans such as Roche now suggest drug discovery might prove to be quantum computing’s first killer app.

| Phononic crystals as a nanomechanical computing platform.

Without electronics and photonics, there would be no computers, smartphones, sensors, or information and communication technologies. In the coming years, the new field of phononics may further expand these options. That field is concerned with understanding and controlling lattice vibrations (phonons) in solids. In order to realize phononic devices, however, lattice vibrations have to be controlled as precisely as commonly realized in the case of electrons or photons.

Separate experiments, each of over 100 sentences, provide a strong proof of concept that Quantum Natural Language Processing is within reach.

Using the extinct niobium-92 atom, ETH researchers have been able to date events in the early solar system with greater precision than before. The study concludes that supernova explosions must have taken place in the birth environment of our sun.

Few terms are more ubiquitous in the scientific arena these days than “quantum.”
