Today, fabricators processing prototypes or low-quantity jobs can print their own press brake tooling. They need to ensure a ...

Researchers at École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) and Center Suisse d’Electronique et de Microtechnique (CSEM) in Switzerland developed a novel single-step thermal annealing process for ...

Induction annealing provides precise and reliable control of metal material properties. It is predominantly used for soft and stress-relief annealing, providing a number of advantages over traditional ...

Wave Quantum Inc. (NYSE: QBTS) ("D-Wave" or the "Company"), the only dual-platform quantum computing company, providing ...

The art and science of quantum annealing to arrive at a best of all worlds answer to difficult questions has been well understood for years (even if implementing it as a computational device took time ...

ZnO varistor ceramics were synthesised by cold sintering/spark plasma sintering and post-annealing treatment. Intriguingly, the ZnO varistor ceramics present ultrahigh potential gradient, high ...

The major factors affecting the performance of crystalline thin films are the presence of grain boundaries and inherent crystal structure. Post-deposition annealing is frequently employed to improve ...

A research team led by Switzerland's EPFL has sought to simplify TOPCon solar cell production by combining the two required high-temperature steps – front-side emitter formation and rear passivating ...

The D-Wave quantum annealer isn’t a general-purpose computer, in that it can only solve a set of problems that can be structured as energy minimizations. And even on those problems, D-Wave employees ...
