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...
King’s opens new suite of photonics and nanofabrication laboratories
A new suite of photonics and nanofabrication laboratories has been officially opened on the King’s College London Strand Campus. The photonics laboratories house cutting-edge levitated optomechanics experiments and attosecond lasers as well as extending King’s...
Controlling optical response with designed electron temperature distributions in plasmonic nanostructures.
LCN researchers at King’s College London have discovered how to control light at ultrafast timescales by designing the distribution of energy of electrons in nanostructures. These metallic nanostructures are manmade materials that can have interesting optical...
