ERC funding for levitated micro-electro-mechanical systems
LCN researchers at King’s have received €150,000 in grant funding from the European Research Council (ERC) to develop the LeviTech project, led by Dr James Millen. Through its use of innovative levitation techniques, the project will apply the principles of quantum...
Synthetic synapses get more like a real brain
The human brain easily outperforms today’s state-of-the-art supercomputers fed on just the calorie input of a modest diet, as opposed to the full-scale power station energy input that a supercomputer guzzles through. The difference stems from the multiple states the...
Tracking wiggling biomolecules inside nanopores
One of the early breakthroughs for nanotechnology was its success in visualising individual atoms and molecules. Nowadays, we can not only visualise molecules, but also capture videos of how they move. Yet at the nanoscale, how do you know if such motion is related to...
