On-Demand, Direct Printing of Nanodiamonds at the Quantum Level

Practical realization of quantum devices calls for the placement of individual qubits on complex nanophotonic circuits. However, this prerequisite continues to suffer from coarse positioning accuracy, low throughput, and process complexity. We developed a novel nanoprinting scheme that allows the controllable placement of nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center nanodiamonds at the quantum level. The scheme enables remarkable achievements that are not attainable by other approaches: (1) single-quantum level quantity control, (2) sub-wavelength positional accuracy, and (3) scalable, ‘lithography-free’ patterning capability. We believe this work to be a game-changer, as it directly addresses the key technological challenge associated with the realization of quantum devices. The patent for this invention has been filed (US 63/236,411, PCT Application No. PCT/CN2022/113516).

TechTalk – Learning Optimal Auctions from Data

The design of optimal auctions for revenue maximization is a central topic in Economics. Classical optimal auction theory assumes that bidders’ values are drawn from a known distribution. In reality, the source of such prior information is really past data. Cole and Roughgarden (2014) modeled past data as i.i.d. samples from the value distribution and asked: How many samples are sufficient/necessary to learn a near optimal auction? This TechTalk will introduce a unified theory that yields sample-efficient algorithms with optimal sample complexity for auctions with homogeneous goods, and state-of-the-art sample complexity for auctions with heterogeneous goods. Unlike conventional statistical learning theory which focuses on the complexity of hypothesis classes, our new theory relies on the simplicity of data distributions and a monotonicity property of these problems.

Stereolithography (SLA) 3D printing

Stereolithography (SLA) 3D printing is an industrial 3D printing process used to create concept models, cosmetic prototypes, and complex parts with intricate geometries in as fast as 1 day. It uses a thermoset liquid, not a thermoplastic, which is UV-cured in layers to form final parts. When SLA resins are exposed to certain wavelengths of light, short molecular chains join together, polymerizing monomers and oligomers into solidified rigid or flexible geometries.
