Researchers have designed a nickel oxide-based system that demonstrates learning behaviors and is easily implementable in RRAM arrays. Image: Purdue University/Sandip Mondal. Researchers trying to create a new generation of supercomputers are looking for inspiration from the most complex and energy-efficient computer ever built – the human brain. In some of their initial forays into […]
The upper panel shows a sketch of the experiment. In a magnetic field, a heat current (red arrow) applied to the crystal produces a thermal Hall signal that arises from bosonic excitations (orange balls) moving along the edges. The lower panel is a color map of the thermal Hall signal (scale bar on the right) […]
