Making Quantum ‘Waves’ in Ultrathin Materials
Wavelike, collective oscillations of electrons known as “plasmons” are very important for determining the optical and electronic properties of metals. In atomically thin 2D materials, plasmons have an energy that is more useful for applications, including sensors and communication devices, than plasmons found in bulk metals.
More than Half of Americans, Including Majority of Young Adults, Feel Voice Control Is Essential in Smart Devices Post COVID-19, Survey Reveals
As consumers find new ways to connect with family, friends and colleagues during COVID-19, a majority of Americans are opting to use their voices to control a variety of smart devices, rather than using touch screens and other tactile interfaces, according to results from a national CARAVAN® survey conducted on behalf of Syntiant, a deep learning tech company providing always-on voice solutions for edge devices.
