New design principles for spin-based quantum materials
Posted by Quinn Sena in categories: computing, internet, quantum physics
As our lives become increasingly intertwined with technologyâwhether supporting communication while working remotely or streaming our favorite showâso too does our reliance on the data these devices create. Data centers supporting these technology ecosystems produce a significant carbon footprintâand consume 200 terawatt hours of energy each year, greater than the annual energy consumption of Iran. To balance ecological concerns yet meet growing demand, advances in microelectronic processorsâthe backbone of many Internet of Things (IoT) devices and data hubsâmust be efficient and environmentally friendly.
Northwestern University materials scientists have developed new design principles that could help spur development of future quantum materials used to advance (IoT) devices and other resource-intensive technologies while limiting ecological damage.
âNew path-breaking materials and computing paradigms are required to make data centers more energy-lean in the future,â said James Rondinelli, professor of materials science and engineering and the Morris E. Fine Professor in Materials and Manufacturing at the McCormick School of Engineering, who led the research.

E-beam atomic-scale 3D âsculptingâ could enable new quantum nanodevices
Posted by Quinn Sena in categories: engineering, nanotechnology, quantum physics
Based on focused electron beam-induced processing (FEBID) techniques, the work could allow production of 2-D/3D complex nanostructures and functional nanodevices useful in quantum communications, sensing, and other applications. For oxygen-containing materials such as graphene oxide, etching can be done without introducing outside materials, using oxygen from the substrate.
âBy timing and tuning the energy of the electron beam, we can activate interaction of the beam with oxygen in the graphene oxide to do etching, or interaction with hydrocarbons on the surface to create carbon deposition,â said Andrei Fedorov, professor and Rae S. and Frank H. Neely Chair in the George W. Woodruff School of Mechanical Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology. âWith atomic-scale control, we can produce complicated patterns using direct write-remove processes. Quantum systems require precise control on an atomic scale, and this could enable a host of potential applications.â

Russia just released footage of a brand new combat exoskeleton in action
Posted by Quinn Sena in category: cyborgs
Russian state-owned defense corporation Rostec has released footage of a brand-new combat exoskeleton for assault operations in action.
The video footage, published by Rostec on Monday, shows a Russian service member wielding firearms, climbing stairs, and rucking through wooded terrain while wearing the defense giantâs new âShturmovikâ â or âStormerâ â exoskeleton:

US Navy SEALs change creed statement to become gender-neutral
Posted by Quinn Sena in category: military
The US Navy SEALs have changed their creed statement to become gender-neutral and have eliminated terms such as âbrotherhood,â according to a report.
âNaval Special Warfare continues to deliberately develop a culture of tactical and ethical excellence that reflects the nation we represent, and that draws upon the talents of the all-volunteer force who meet the standards of qualification as a SEAL or SWCC,â Navy Special Warfare spokesman Lt. Cmdr. Matthew Stroup told American Military News.
One change addresses the first paragraph of the SEAL ethos.

Whatâs Up: October 2020 Skywatching Tips from NASA
Posted by Alberto Lao in category: space
Thereâs a reason our Perseverance rover and other missions left Earth for Mars recently: the two planets are close together right now. For those of us still on the ground, this also means Mars will be gorgeous in the sky this month. See more at: http://go.nasa.gov/34hp376

For the First Time Ever, Scientists Caught Time Crystals Interacting
Posted by Genevieve Klien in categories: computing, quantum physics, time travel
Thatâs big news for the most mysterious phase of matterâand maybe physics as we know it.
For the first time, scientists have observed an interaction of a rare and baffling form of matter called time crystals. The crystals look at a glance like âregularâ crystals, but they have a relationship to time that both intrigues and puzzles scientists because of its unpredictability. Now, experts say they could have applications in quantum computing.âregularâ crystals, but they have a relationship to time that both intrigues and puzzles scientists because of its unpredictability.
