Tech Xplore / Microcombs unlock 112 Gbps wireless link at 560 GHz for 6G
Researchers at Tokushima University have demonstrated single-channel wireless transmission at 112 Gbps in the 560 GHz band using soliton microcombs, marking a significant step toward next-generation 6G communications.
Tech Xplore / Audio cues can make AI feel more human, though some users may judge it as rude
Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University are investigating how humans respond to artificial intelligence agents that sound physically present in the same room, work that could shape the future of audio-only AI systems used ...
Tech Xplore / Ground oyster shells unlock ultra-light magnesium foam for vehicles and protective gear
For the first time, researchers at Helmholtz-Zentrum Hereon have produced a magnesium foam made entirely from natural marine raw materials. No toxic additives are required for its production. Ground oyster shell powder from ...
Tech Xplore / Free tool aims to speed research on how AI chatbots shape trust, learning, and decisions
With artificial intelligence upending how people seek, interpret, and act on information, efforts are underway to design AI systems that are equitable, efficient, and inclusive. A University of Oklahoma data scientist has ...
Tech Xplore / You can persuade AI models to accept falsehoods as truth, study shows
When you ask a large language model a question, the reply may include falsehoods, and if you challenge those statements with facts, the AI may still uphold the reply as true. That's what my research group found when we asked ...
Tech Xplore / Ultra-thin membrane enables high-efficiency hydrogen fuel cells for transport and industry
Engineers have developed a new ultra-thin membrane that allows fuel cells to operate more efficiently at high temperatures by enabling proton transport without water, overcoming a key limitation in clean energy technologies.
Tech Xplore / Researchers establish minimum effective coating thickness for longer-lasting solid-state EV batteries
Sulfide-based all-solid-state batteries (ASSBs), which use a solid electrolyte instead of a liquid one, are emerging as a promising way to overcome the safety and energy-density limitations of conventional lithium-ion batteries. ...
Tech Xplore / Scientists develop near-invisible solar cells that could turn windows into power generators
Imagine a car whose windows and sunroof can help top up its battery while parked under the sun, or a pair of smart glasses whose lenses can harvest light to power built-in electronics.
Tech Xplore / Historic solar plane ends in Gulf crash after military test mission
The experimental plane Solar Impulse 2, which completed a historic round-the-world trip in 2016 without using jet fuel, crashed into the Gulf of Mexico recently, its owner revealed.
Tech Xplore / Basalt could be the key to greener and cheaper cement
Ideas to reduce carbon emissions often revolve around renewable power, electric vehicles and energy efficiency. But there's another, less colorful character that's often overlooked: cement.
Tech Xplore / A single real-world data point may stop AI model collapse, analysis suggests
New work explaining the inner workings of artificial intelligence could provide a way around the threat of AI "model collapse," potentially averting growing numbers of AI hallucinations in the future.
Tech Xplore / Designing better quantum circuits with AI
Researchers from the group of theoretical physicist Hans Briegel have collaborated with NVIDIA to develop an AI method that automatically generates efficient quantum circuits, a key bottleneck in making quantum computers ...
