New AI Solution Helps Design Arctic Infrastructure
… hectares on the map and specify existing transport nodes and other desirable indicators, whereas data on climate conditions for the selected area – wind, sea state, ice characteristics, and hydrometeorological hazards – will be automatically imported from the 3D climate model, taking into account potential climate change. The result is an interactive simulation, …

ITMO’s Monday Science Roundup #35
…Research Researchers at ITMO, the Ioffe Institute, and Zhejiang University have some ideas on how to improve the lasers used in the production of metamaterials. In their latest study, they present a less costly method rooted in a targeted approach to reordering the particles within a given metasurface.

2023 Startups as Theses: Smart Home for the Impaired, Agrotech and More
…that allows for no mistakes. “Our technology is superior in various respects: from the idea and ease of use to its speed. It is also more affordable and requires fewer materials and equipment — only a laser system,” explained Evgeny Prokofiev. The team has the prototype and tried-and-tested technology. They are currently negotiating with several domestic …

Bringing Quantum Tech Closer: Researchers from ITMO and Ludwig Maximilian University Examine New Approach to 2D Heterostructures
…Two-dimensional materials (materials that are only a few atoms thick) have been extensively experimentally studied. Their discovered properties, such as superconductivity in 2D graphene or 2D excitons in transition metal dichalcogenides, have the potential of bringing about not only new optoelectronic devices, but also quantum technolog…

Improving Lasers: ITMO Scientists Suggest a New Way to Couple Light and Matter
…Metamaterials – materials that act as resonators, increasing the interaction of light and matter – are used in physics to detect various substances with optical sensors. Molecules in a substance interact with a specific wavelength. Resonators maintain a given wavelength for longer periods of time, thus increasing a detector’s sensitivit…

ITMO Researchers Present Automated Mobile Laboratory For Artificial Heart Development
…Experiments with cultures of cells or microorganisms are associated with a number of requirements: the lab needs to be sterile and a certain temperature has to be maintained inside, while all staff have to wear special uniforms. All of these conditions can be met in special culture chambers, which are stationary isolated laboratories. However, they are not really sui…

Russian Naval Glory and Island Forts: A Day Trip to Kronstadt
…e names of notable admirals and travelers engraved on the Lighthouse of Memory. Lighthouse Museum Lighthouses are not only symbols of hope, but also seemingly very mysterious buildings known and understood only by seafarers. At this museum, you will unravel the inner workings of these predecessors of modern GPS devices as you walk among the exhibits on displ…

A New Way to Measure Particles: ITMO Scientists Develop Electrodynamic Trap
…es are constantly being improved. In an earlier article, the ITMO physicists described the theory behind an approach for simultaneous measurement of several particle characteristics (size, mass, charge, and density) using a quadrupole trap. This method works as follows: the particle in question is placed in between alternating electric fields that “trap” it, lock…
