Sculpting quantum materials for the electronics of the future

The development of new information and communication technologies poses new challenges to scientists and industry. Designing new quantum materials—whose exceptional properties stem from quantum physics—is the most promising ...

Low-cost device can measure air pollution anywhere

Air pollution is a major public health problem: The World Health Organization has estimated that it leads to over 4 million premature deaths worldwide annually. Still, it is not always extensively measured. But now an MIT ...

NASA developing AI to navigate the lunar surface using landmarks

Much like how familiar landmarks can give travelers a sense of direction when their smart phones lose their lock on GPS signals, a NASA engineer is teaching a machine to use features on the Moon's horizon to navigate across ...

'Twisty' photons could turbocharge next-gen quantum communication

Quantum computers and communication devices work by encoding information into individual or entangled photons, enabling data to be quantum securely transmitted and manipulated exponentially faster than is possible with conventional ...
