Purdue University engineers, including ECE Assistant Professor Shreyas Sen, have tightened security on the "internet of body." Now, the network you didn't know you had is only accessible by you and your devices, thanks to technology that keeps communication signals within the body itself.
Prof. Hong Z. Tan is among the recipients of the 2018 Google Faculty Research Awards. These annual awards are structured as unrestricted gifts to recognize and support the research of world-class faculty members at top universities around the world.
A new device created by Purdue researchers has experimentally shown quasiparticles interfering for the first time. The findings were published in Nature Physics.
For Fall 2018, the Barrett Robinson Team Award winner for senior design was team Ohmonics. Team members Renzo Alvarez, Joe Bean, Alyssa Berding, Gabriel Ferrate Cuartero, and Jacob Kane designed and prototypes a self-contained analog keyboard synthesizer. Team member Gabriel Ferrate Cuartero was selected as the Eaton Award winner, which recognizes the top individual in ECE 49022.
A new material, engineered by Purdue University researchers into a thin strip is one step closer to "immunizing" qubits against noise, such as heat and other parts of a computer, that interferes with how well they hold information. the work is being led by Prof. Yong Chen.
Researchers have created a new testing ground for quantum systems in which they can literally turn certain particle interactions on and off, potentially paving the way for advances in spintronics. The experiment was done in the lab of ECE Prof. Yong Chen.
Prof. Yung-Hsiang Lu had two students recognized by the Computing Research Association (CRA). ECE student Caleb Tung and CS student Ling Zhang received honorable mentions for the 2019 Outstanding Undergraduate Researcher Award.
The Center for Brain-Inspired Computing (C-BRIC), a five-year project supported by $31 million in funding from the Semiconductor Research Corporation’s JUMP program. The multi-faceted research endeavor is being led by ECE Prof. Kaushik Roy and will include over 85 graduate students and researchers at Purdue and nine other universities.
