• Optical Computers Explained: Will They Replace the Regular Kind?

  …ides. Through these waveguides, the device receives optical signals that may be interpreted as zeros and ones (if we’re dealing with a digital optical computer) or as a continuous function of time and position (in that case, the system is referred to as an analog optical chip). Then, the signal is converted by the optical circuit with the help of various optical elem…

• ITMO Launches a Series of Scientific Meetups With the Vice Rector for Research

  …y to create these waves. If you simply point a laser at a flat surface, they won’t appear. In order to produce them, scientists use defects on metal surfaces – tiny cavities or diffraction gratings. With one problem solved, another one appears: how do you control the direction of light particles that propagate on the metal surfac…

• Researchers from ITMO and University of Toronto Develop Non-Antibiotic Material to Fight Infection and Mend Wounds

  …Modern medicine faces a constant dilemma. Medical specialists use various antibiotics to prevent microbial infections in patients. As such, surviving bacteria develop a resistance to these antibiotics over time and produce new microorganism cells with these traits. This results in super bacteria that are very difficult to treat. This has led to a demand for new me…

• Russia on Film: the Good, the Bad and the Ugly

  … sultry day before a thunderstorm in July or people splashing water in the sea? Neither can we. And here Transsiberian (2008) – with evil police officers, boorish saleswomen, no connection to the real world, and, of course, a lot of snow and a lot of vodka (no way!) – proves the point for the hundredth time. But then we’re heading to Siberia (2018) – the most free…
