Quantum Engineering

Born into a family of architects, Nina Andrejević loved creating drawings of her home and other buildings while a child in Serbia. She and her twin sister shared this passion, along with an appetite for math and science. Over time, these interests...

Mathematical simulations show the new approach may offer faster, cheaper, and more accurate detection, including identifying new variants.

MIT engineers produce a rechargeable battery that can be woven and washed, and could provide power for fiber-based electronic devices and sensors.

Wednesday, December 15, 2021. 1:00 – 3:00 PM Virtual event. Zoom The Del Favero Thesis Prize, established in 2014 with a generous gift from alum James Del Favero (SM ’84), is awarded annually to a PhD graduate in NSE whose thesis is...

NSE’s Bilge Yildiz and Laura Grego along with Lydia Bourouiba, Hong Liu, Thomas Peacock, and Lindley Winslow, are named 2021 fellows for their contributions to physics.

Physicists and engineers have long been interested in creating new forms of matter, those not typically found in nature. Such materials might find use someday in, for example, novel computer chips. Beyond applications, they also reveal elusive insights about the fundamental workings...

Bilge Yildiz’s research impacts a wide range of technologies. Her lab studies fuel cells, which convert hydrogen and oxygen into electricity (and water). They study electrolyzers, which go the other way, using electricity to convert water into hydrogen and oxygen. They study...

Scientists around the world are developing new hardware for quantum computers, a new type of device that could accelerate drug design, financial modeling, and weather prediction. They rely on qubits, bits of matter that can represent some combination of 1 and 0...

Mingda Li received a 2021 Early Career Research Award given by the DoE Basic Energy Sciences Program for his work in machine learning augmented multimodal neutron scattering for emergent topological materials.

Whether testing high-field fusion magnets or his own physical endurance, Theo Mouratidis pushes the limits.
