INNOVATION RESEARCH IN THE SEARCH OF EXCELLENCE
EFFICIENT WHEELCHAIR CONTROL
24.09.2019 RIA Novosti MEPhI has developed a multichannel control system decomposition method based on the extended BCI (neurocomputer interface), which is designed to help the robotic wheelchair users.
ACCIDENT TOLERANT FUEL: HOW TO ADVANCE THE REACTOR’S SAFETY
28.11.2018 RIA Novosti
MEPhI scientists have designed a chrome containing fuel-element cladding canning material for the tolerant nuclear fuel. In order to get the insight on the new cladding properties, composition, structure and thickness of the canning materials were investigated using electron- and ion- microscopy. The optimal composition of the materials is found to satisfy criteria of high resistivity to oxidation of the zirconium tube-type cladding surface at 1200°C for 400 seconds.
WHAT IS ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE GOING TO BE FOR THE HUMANITY
29.08.201 RIA Novosti
An emotional artificial intelligence (AI) modeling is one of the hot topics for scientist at MEPhI. In the research, people’s emotions were investigated in the experiments utilizing VR- and AR- platforms (with eye direction tracking), as well as on electromyography and analysis of facial expressions. Next step is elaboration and empirical validation of the socio-emotional cognitive architecture “Ebika”.
PROSPECTS OF NANOTECHNOLOGY FOR CANCER TREATMENT
16.07.2018 RIA Novosti
MEPhI scientists have developed a new type of contrast agents for the MRI with the use of biodegradable silicon nanoparticles, that can be applied both for cancer diagnosis and cancer treatment. The use of silicon nanoparticles is one of the most prospective nanotechnology cancer treatment methods. The particles are biodegradable and therefore not harmful to the patient. Nanoparticles can be localized at tumors, subsequently heated by the microwaves to the temperatures (42 C or higher) needed to destroy cancer cells.
MOLECULE-SIZED MICROCHIP ELEMENTS
15.08.2019 RIA Novosti
For miniaturization of electronics, namely for the fabrication of molecule-sized microchip elements, MEPhI scientists conducted predictive modeling of the organic light-emitting diodes (OLED) materials properties. The positive outcome that the changes in the excited state of an organic semiconductor molecule were simulated with high enough precision. These finding, allow scientist to propose recommendations for modifications of the molecules of the OLED matrix emitting layers.
ULTRA-THIN FILM LIGHT ABSORBERS ARE DESIGNED
26.11.2018 RIA Novosti
Multilayer ultra thin films electronics and energy of the future have been designed at MEPhI. For that, conditions essential for the thermochemical synthesis of heterostructures based on transition metal dichalcogenides MoS2, WS2, MoSe2 and WSe2 identified. Films can act as photocatalysts, which will help to obtain the solar fuel components (hydrogen and oxygen) from water more effectively.
COMPRESS DIGITAL HOLOGRAMS 380 TIMES0
07.07.2019.2018 Interfax
A method to compress holographic information by 380 times have been demonstrated at M|EPhI. With the new method, 1TB holographic video can be compressed to 3 GB. The method includes the analysis of the individual hologram features, providing high quality image recovery. To that end, after the hologram recording, the spectrum analysis is conducted, individual elements are isolated, wavelet transformation and wavelet processing are performed.
