ITMO Researchers Discover New Way to Amplify Exciton Current and Accelerate AI Computations
Researchers from ITMO’s Faculty of Physics and their collaborators from POSTECH (South Korea) are the first to discover an effect that amplifies exciton current by 80 times. Additionally, the researchers have developed an electroplasmonic nanoresonator, a special structure used to control the exciton current at the nanoscale. In the future, it can lay the foundation for energy-efficient, fast, and compact exciton integrated circuits for data transfer and AI computations in addition to existing electron and optical circuits. The corresponding paper has been published in Nature Materials.

New Type of Axion Response Predicted by ITMO Scientists
Physicists at ITMO University have found a new type of an electromagnetic response in a medium. The newly discovered phenomenon has been dubbed a dual axion response and is different from the usual axion response, which has been a common research subject in photonics and condensed matter physics lately. The discovery casts a fresh perspective on previous experimental data and lays the foundation for a new field of study. The research is supported by the Russian Science Foundation and published in Nature Communications.

Professor Sergei Tihodeev on Soviet Science and Collaboration with ITMO University
ITMO University continues to invite established lecturers from different universities. Sergei Tihodeev is a lecturer from Lomonosov Moscow State University who is renowned for his research in the field of electrodynamics and nonlinear optics. During a course that ended last week, Mr. Tihodeev told the students about an effective method for solving Maxwell's equations. ITMO.NEWS asked the professor about the possible applications of his research, the achievements of ITMO's Faculty of Physics and Engineering and further collaboration plans.
