As structures made of metal get smaller - as their dimensions approach the micrometer scale (millionths of a meter) or less - they get stronger. Scientists discovered this phenomenon 50 years ago ...

D-Wave Quantum Inc. (NYSE: QBTS) (“D-Wave” or the “Company”), the only dual-platform quantum computing company, providing both annealing and gate-model systems, software, and services, today announced ...

Researchers at Macquarie University in Sydney have developed a microwave technology they say will improve the production of solar cells, while making them easier to recycle. During the fabrication of ...

Murray Thom, vice president for quantum technology evangelism for D-Wave, knows that his company for more than two decades has played a key role in a somewhat unusual industry. “One of the things ...

Researchers at Switzerland’s Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne have developed a low-temperature annealing method that maintains the structure of gold and silver when the two metals are combined ...

There is a seemingly endless list of problems to be solved and issues to be addressed in vendors’ steady march toward quantum computing. Researchers in Europe say they recently solved a “decades-old ...

The CNT coating between the layers is heated with microwaves to locally anneal. (Credit: Sweeney et al., Science Adv., 2017) Layer adhesion is one of the weak points with FDM 3D printing, with ...

A brass annealing machine is a once elite piece of reloading equipment that has become more mainstream recently. Though I’ve reloaded for more than 20 years, I’ve been mostly just a functional ...
