Sound-powered sensors stand to save millions of batteries
Research
ETH Zurich
Researchers at ETH Zurich have developed a sensor that utilises energy from sound waves to control electronic devices. This could one day save millions of batteries.
Two projects launched to connect error-corrected qubits
Research
ETH Zurich PSI
ETH Zurich is participating in two quantum computing projects that are being financed by IARPA, the US research funding agency, with up to 40 million dollars. Both projects aim to connect two error-corrected qubits with one another and thus lay the foundation for future quantum computers.
Analog & digital: best of both worlds in one energy-efficient system
Research
EPFL
The fusion of 2D semiconductors and ferroelectric materials could lead to joint digital and analog information processing, with significant improvement in energy consumption, electronic device performance, and lead to novel functionalities.
An unexpected antenna for nanoscale light sources
Research
ETH Zurich Empa
Researchers at ETH have created an antenna for light sources on a chip using an unusual placement of a semiconductor material. In the future, efficient nanoscale LEDs and lasers could be produced in this way.
