Tiny circuit turns a hidden property of electrons into a working info channel
A multinational team of researchers have built a chip that writes, sorts and electronically reads information stored in the ‘valleys’ of an atomically thin material. Associate Prof Dong Zhaogang is part of the team and was quoted in the article.
Yan and Colleagues Develop Neural Transfer Unification for Efficient Quantum Decoding
A new framework, neural transfer unification, accelerates the training of foundation decoders by aligning decoding tasks across different code sizes. This work was done by researchers from NTU, SUTD, Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology and Shanghai Jiao Tong University.
Researchers expand simulation tool to help design the next generation of photonic and quantum devices
Researchers from SUTD and NUS have developed a new computational approach that extends the widely used open-source particle-in-cell method with condensed-matter physics. Associate Professor Wu Lin was quoted in the article.
Aspire 2B supercomputer shows hybrid future with Quantum
CNA938 Rewind – Associate Professor Dario Poletti was interviewed for his insights on what quantum computing can and cannot do, and what are its alternatives.
Training AI to Create Optical Surfaces by Learning from Real-World Flaws
Associate Prof Dong Zhaogang co-led a research team to develop an AI-powered deep-learning framework trained on experimental data rather than simulations, enabling faster and more accurate design of light-controlling nanostructures.
Diamond Stretch Yields Path for Ultra-Precise Sensors
In this new study, an international research team led by Assistant Professor Ang Yee Sin’s team at SUTD, in collaboration with Yangzhou University, China, investigated how silicon-vacancy (SiV) centres respond when the surrounding diamond lattice is compressed or stretched. Using advanced computational modelling, the team systematically explored how the atomic structure and optical signals of the defect evolve under different mechanical conditions.
After false starts and a muted launch, can beverage container return scheme improve recycling in S’pore?
SUTD Senior Lecturer Lee Chee Huei, who was part of a citizen-led group that proposed the return scheme in 2019, said shoppers may need to check receipts for incorrect charges, noting that a transition period with mixed stock is unavoidable but should minimise inconvenience for all.
Singapore’s quantum strategy: who pays and who benefits?
CNA938 Rewind – Singapore is stepping up its quantum computing plans with a new partnership involving Nobel Prize winner John Martinis. What will this mean in practice, and how will it be rolled out? Daniel Martin speaks with Associate Professor Dario Poletti.
Spectral slimming for single-nanoparticle plasmons
Researchers from SUTD and international collaborators have developed a new strategy to overcome a long-standing limitation in plasmonic loss by reshaping light-matter interactions through substrate engineering. The article includes a quote from Associate Professor Wu Lin.
Symmetry Breaking in Nonlocal Metasurfaces Enhances Light Trapping and Enables Polarization Conversion
Researchers from the Institute of High Performance Computing, together with collaborators from SUTD, Eindhoven University of Technology, and ANU, demonstrated that breaking symmetry in nanostructures enhances light trapping by strengthening interactions within the material.
