Paper AI sensor mimics brain for health monitoring

Mar 11, 2024 (Nanowerk News) From creating images, generating text, and enabling self-driving cars, the potential uses of artificial intelligence (AI) are vast and transformative. However, all this capability comes at a very high energy cost. For instance, estimates indicate that training OpenAI's popular GPT-3 model consumed over 1,287 MWh,...

Quantum-mechanical ‘molecules’ spotted in superconducting devices

Mar 11, 2024 (Nanowerk News) Electronic states that resemble molecules and are promising for use in future quantum computers have been created in superconducting circuits by physicists at RIKEN (Nature Communications, "Phase-dependent Andreev molecules and superconducting gap closing in coherently-coupled Josephson junctions"). The most obvious advantage of superconductors – materials...

Nanotechnology Now – Press Release: What heat can tell us about battery chemistry: using the Peltier effect to study lithium-ion cells

Home > Press > What heat can tell us about battery chemistry: using the Peltier effect to study lithium-ion cells The researchers studied how electric current created heat flows in a lithium-ion battery cell. The heat flowed opposite to electric current, resulting in a higher temperature on the side where...
