• ITMO Physicists Suggest Method for Mass Production of Metal-Organic Frameworks for Gas Sensors

  …as big as possible. This condition is nearly impossible to fulfill now because there is no single “recipe” for producing frameworks with such a length-to-thickness ratio. Each new MOF requires a separate approach.  A possible solution is to switch from using a 100 micrometer-high crystal to using layers of this same crystal that would be mere nanometers in height.…

• ITMO Scientists Present A Way to Control Light-Matter Coupling in Next-Gen Optical Devices

  … A solution from ITMO ITMO physicists have suggested their own approach to studying and controlling waveguide exciton-polaritons with a solid immersion lens. With the new method, it takes only a few milliseconds to see how light interacts with matter inside a waveguide – and control the process.  This was achieved by integrating a two-dimensional semicond…

• This Is a Sign: Translating Popular Science into Sign Language

  …e, I used to ride the BMX bike and skateboard. In these communities, you talk less and fall more, then you get up, show that you are okay, and keep going. The hearing usually knew the most common signs (mostly profane ones) and we used to teach them some more proper and practical ones. Growing up in the 90s and early 00s, I felt that the deaf and the hearing were mor…
