Discovery shows for the first time that multiferroic properties can exist in a two-dimensional material; could lead to more efficient magnetic memory devices.
Join the Department of Materials Science & Engineering for a talk by Prof. Lan Yang on opportunities in optical micro resonators. This talk will cover ultra-high-quality whispering-gallery-mode (WGM) optical microresonators, which provide an unprecedented capability to trap light in a highly confined volume smaller than a strand of human hair.
Join MIT.nano and Oxford Instruments Asylum Research for a full-day workshop featuring presentations and hands-on demonstrations of the Asylum Research atomic force microscopes at MIT.nano.
John Cohn and Franz-Josef Ulm, along with 19 additional MIT alumni, are honored for significant contributions to engineering research, practice, and education.
Microwave amplifiers based on III-V high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) are a key component of scientific instrumentation. Lower noise devices are of intense interest for applications in radio astronomy and quantum computing. In this talk, Minnich will discuss our efforts to identify and mitigate noise sources in HEMTs at cryogenic temperatures and thereby realize transistor amplifiers operating near the quantum noise limit.
