The UK government has announced a series of initiatives aimed at advancing AI and quantum research, including the establishment of a National Quantum Computing Centre and a £210m investment in AI research and development. The initiatives are part of the government's plan to position the UK as a global leader in science and technology.
Researchers at RIKEN have developed a handheld device that utilizes the terahertz band of the electromagnetic spectrum to "X-ray" objects without harmful radiation. By optimizing techniques and using specific materials, they have significantly improved terahertz wave power output and miniaturized the device. The technology has various applications including non-destructive imaging and quantum research, with collaborations with industrial partners underway. The palm-sized devices can generate terahertz waves, allowing for the detection of concealed objects and the analysis of chemical compositions. The technology has potential uses in security, art analysis, and industrial inspections.
