Electricity-driven undersea reactions can be important for the emergence of life
Scientists produced a set of electrochemical undersea reactions in the laboratory that are suspected to have been generated in early ocean floor hydrothermal vent environments.
Artificial receptor distinguishes between male and female hormones
Biological receptors distinguish and bind steroid sex hormones, e.g., androgen-, progestogen-, and estrogen-type hormones, with high selectivity. To date, artificial molecular receptors have been...
Photonics: The curious case of the disappearing cylinders
In recent years, invisibility has become an area of increasing research interest due to advances in materials engineering. Thus, making objects invisible is no...
Using Edge AI to listen to the silent voices of cattle
A joint project team led by Tokyo Institute of Technology (hereinafter, "Tokyo Tech"), Shinshu University and Information Services International-Dentsu, Ltd. (hereinafter, "ISID") developed cattle...

In our communication-centered era, Internet traffic has been expanding rapidly. The huge measures of information that travels through the Internet are empowered by immense...
Scientists developed a tunable bio-imaging device using terahertz plasmonics
Plasmon-based devices are powerful for use in highly sensitive evanescent-field detection and analysis, but they exhibit the problem of limited frequency tunability for fixed...
Can a flowing liquid-like material maintain its structural order like crystals?
Scientists at Tokyo Tech found a chiral compound, which can unexpectedly frame a molecular assembly with an incredibly large single domain structure past a...
A miniature, low-cost transceiver for fast, reliable communications
In order to support high-speed mobile data access using the millimeter-wave spectrum for 5G, scientists at the Tokyo Tech have designed a 28 GHz...
An ultra-low-power frequency synthesizer targeted for IoT devices
Frequency synthesizers are key building blocks of wireless communication devices. Before installing, they need to satisfy demanding requirements. Until now, analog PLL synthesizers have...
Summing a constant may help to detect synchronized brain activity
People are great at recognizing whether separate things happen all the while, for instance, if two lights flash together or not. At the point...
A new robust approach for minimizing costs in power-distribution networks
Scientists at Tokyo Tech have developed a new method for scheduling the turning on and off of power generators.
