Silicon nanoparticle is a new candidate for an ultrafast all-optical transistor
…n of an ultrafast and compact all-optical transistor is considered to be instrumental in the development of optical computing. Such a nanodevice would enable scientists to control the propagation of an optical signal beam by means of an external control beam within several picoseconds (10−12 of a second). In the study, a group of Rus…

Russian physicists cast doubt on Cambridge scientists’ claim that they unraveled the last mystery of electromagnetism
…s based on metallic nanoparticles. Thanks to the lower losses related to the scattering of radiation in the optical range, dielectric nanoparticles are ideal for effective control and modulation of electromagnetic waves on nanoscale. On top of it, dielectric nanoantennas show other exotic properties that are not inherent in their metallic analogues – it was shown, fo…

Innovative Stress Control Device Saves from Heart Diseases
… Please, tell about this device. The idea of this gadget is standard. It has the same metrological characteristics as a usual heartbeat monitor. The main feature of our development is that unlike a heartbeat monitor, which has 12 sensors, our device has one sensor and one fingerstall photoplethysmograph. Observing somebody for a month we can predict his or …

ITMO University Students Returned from University of Rochester
… Maksim Melnik: American students almost have no time for self-education. All professors gave us homework every day. It was very hard for us to get into the habit of such control but thanks to this system we learned a lot. Russian students plan their studying by themselves but it means that they are more responsible for their knowledge. However Russian students cann…
