Tiny Cages, Big Implications: Understanding Magnetospectroscopy to Unlock the Potential of Quantum Dots for Computing Computers have become an integral part of our modern world. They are involved in almost every aspect of our lives. From waking up in the morning with the alarm on your phone to watching a film on your smart TV, […]
The Journey to Quantum Non-Demolition Measurements
The Journey to Quantum Non-Demolition Measurements Quantum computers hold the potential to revolutionize fields ranging from cryptography and drug discovery to optimization and machine learning. Solving complex problems currently beyond the reach of classical computers could pave the way for groundbreaking advancements in science, engineering, and society.Quantum computing, with its great potential for exponential speed-ups, […]
Passively Cooling Solar Panels
Passively Cooling Solar Panels Surfaces which passively cool themselves by re-emitting thermal radiation into space could enable an additional way to deal with global warming. Our research looks at creating these cooling surfaces with polymers, potentially facilitating their scalable production as solar panel coatings. Coverage of our warming planet in the media inevitably covers themes […]
Hot charge carrier ultra-thin space based solar cells
Hot Charge Carrier Ultra-Thin Space Based Solar Cells Imagine tomorrow on your way to work your GPS stopped working and as attempt to call your boss to inform them of your problems, you discover your phone no longer works and you can’t even google what is going on, this is what could happen if all […]
Can we tame highly reactive radicals into highly efficient solar cells?
Can we Tame Highly Reactive Radicals into Highly Efficient Solar Cells? It is clear. We are facing the tightest race in human history, the climate crisis. The winds of change are, however, already upon us, with solar cells being omnipresent. They are on top of our homes, in our newspapers, and in governmental policies. Of […]
Combing Magnetism with Superconductivity for Ultra-Fast Memory
Combing Magnetism with Superconductivity for Ultra-Fast Memory The world is predicted to store over 180 zettabytes of data by 2025, a huge amount that would be equivalent to 38.3 trillion DVDs. Data is stored using magnets which is the best way to store data for long periods. However, lots of energy is wasted through heating which is inefficient and due to the current climate crisis, we must look for other […]
A Qubit in Hand May Be Quite Fundamental, But Diamonds Are a Network’s Best Friend
A Qubit in Hand May Be Quite Fundamental, But Diamonds Are a Network’s Best Friend Quantum networks are an emerging area of quantum technology that aim to connect quantum computers through quantum communication channels. They are the quantum equivalent of the internet connecting classical computers. These networks enable the transfer of quantum information over long […]
