International Student’s Packing List: Essentials To Bring to Russia
Maglev Trains, Smartphones, and Biochips: Biggest Breakthroughs in Quantum Mechanics
…sics and mathematics and an associate researcher at ITMO’s Faculty of Physics. Uncertainty principle What is it? This principle states that it is impossible to simultaneously and accurately measure complementary sequences of physical characteristics in particles, such as their position and momentum, amplitude and phase of the electromagnetic wave. Due to …

City of Superlatives: Largest Sites in St. Petersburg
…d Obvodny Canal, Peski, as well as several Russian Revival churches. Square Area: around 13 ha Yet another item on our list of biggest in St. Petersburg and simultaneously in the global top list, Moscow Square was created just under a century ago and didn’t have an official name until 1968. In Soviet times, the city’s grand development plan suggested t…

“Combing” Light: ITMO Researchers Find Reliable and Fast Way to Transmit Data in Space
…these two transformations, the shape of the donut smoothly turns into an array of ordered points, as if it was combed through; the frequency of the vortex beam doubles and simultaneously the number of components with projections of orbital angular momentum in the beam increases. At this moment, the beam’s structure is fixed and becomes resistant to distortions. The f…

ITMO Researchers Produce Artificial Optical Synapse for Enhanced AI Performance
…er, while consuming more energy. The solution may be a processor with the “features” of the brain’s neural networks. The reason is that synapses in biological networks can simultaneously store information and perform their functions, which significantly reduces their power consumption and enhances computing performance. This type of processor, however, cannot be prod…

ITMO Scientists Create World’s Smallest Silicon Light Source
…up of all the colors of the rainbow and even some near-infrared wavelengths. This feature is vital for optical computers as it allows us to operate several radiation types simultaneously, rather than monochromatic light exclusively," notes Artem Larin, PhD in physics and mathematics, an author of the paper and a researcher at ITMO’s Faculty of Physics. Anot…

ITMO Physicists' New Anti-Forgery Tags Can Hide in Plain Sight
…” and a gold “cap.” The interaction of the incident electromagnetic field with the mushroom-shaped nanostructures induces bianisotropy – a state in which the nanostructure simultaneously responds to both the electric and magnetic fields of light. The resulting tag demonstrates unique optical properties: it is capable of changing color only when lit at angles of 57 to…

Russian Picnic: Delicious Staples for an Outdoor Feast
… eat it on the side. Вприкуску (vprikusku), as they say – which means that you’re eating something at the same time without actually mixing it into a dish. Separately, but simultaneously. Throw in some protein The centerpiece of every Russian picnic is shashlik – grilled cubes of meat cooked over hot coals with skewers (шампуры – shampury). You have to either …

ITMO Researchers Create Next-Gen Light-Emitting Components for Displays
…eased lifetime of excited states and new degrees of freedom for optical states to be stored in. Potentially, this will bring us closer to creating compact devices that can simultaneously detect, process, and transmit optical data,” says Vasily Kravtsov, an author of the paper and a senior researcher at ITMO’s Faculty of Physics. The project is supported by the n…

Device for High-Accuracy Cell Experiments Developed at ITMO
…iation. Typically, these methods are implemented using two separate tools, which is expensive and time-consuming. However, combining both methods in a single setup enables simultaneous observation of both the composition and shape of a material, increases the accuracy and quality of the resulting data, and ensures that the investigation is conducted in the desired lo…
