ITMO University Researchers Develop ‘Smart Table’ for Wireless Charging at Record Distance
…y transfer. Our biggest challenge was to figure out the physics behind this process. Our smart table consists of a transmitter, a receiver, and a metasurface. The interaction between these resonant objects is not obvious. We were only able to employ these unique properties once we understood the physics behind them,” says Mingzhao Song, a researcher at ITMO Universit…

International Research Summer Camp in Photonics at ITMO University
…re research work in Finland, where I’ll soon have to work with this kind of equipment. Having done research in several countries, I can say that I don’t see any difference between how things are done in Russia and abroad, it’s just equally good. Either in Europe or Russia, most researchers know their business. When working with such people, you always gain valuabl…

Quantum Computing: Challenges, Prospects, and Current Developments
…d electrons, we can present it as a quantum mechanics problem for a large number of particles. That is a complex model that can nevertheless be written down as an interaction between qubits. In the future, we may try to simulate that hamiltonian on a quantum computer. Why do we need this? It would let us, for example, understand the processes that occur inside…
