All Events

Supriyo Datta, Thomas Duncan Distinguished Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering
School of Electrical Engineering, Purdue University 

Digital computing is based on a deterministic bit with two values, 0 and 1. On the other hand, quantum computing is based on a q-bit which is a delicate superposition of 0 and 1. This talk draws attention to something in-between namely, a p-bit which is a robust classical entity fluctuating between 0 and 1. 

September 16, 2020
1:00 p.m. EST

Part of the NanoBio Seminar Series.

The first in a four-part series comprising the annual MIT Information & Communication Technologies (ICT) event. Speakers include Kent Larson, Principal Research Scientist, MEdia Lab, and Sarah Williams, Associate Professor of Technology & Urban Planning, DUSP.

MIT.nano Associate Director Brian Anthony will join Prof. David Hardt, Industry Co-Director Jose Pacheco, and Arjun Chandar, Founder and CTO of IndustrialML for a discussion on the "Principles of Manufacturing," a set of elements common to all manufacturing industries that revolve around the concepts of flow and variation.

Wednesday, September 9, 2020
12:00 PM – 1:00 PM EST

Andras Kis, Associate Professor, EPFL
Laboratory of Nanoscale Electronics and Structures 

In this talk, Kis will demonstrate how, by using MoS2/WSe2 van der Waals heterostructures, we can realize excitonic transistors with switching action, confinement and control over diffusion length at room temperature in a reconfigurable potential landscape.
