Postdoc: Better together? Stochastic thermodynamics of cooperative optical sensing
Sensing is vital to all information processing systems, ranging from human-made devices to living matter. An important question in this context is whether cooperativity can improve the sensing performance of …
Postdoc: Stochastic thermodynamics of an optical bit
According to Landauer, information is physical. And erasing one bit of information costs at least kT ln(2) of energy. This fundamental limit to the energy efficiency of irreversible classical computing …
In 1961 Rolf Landauer made a groundbreaking discovery: Information is Physical. Landauer showed that erasing one bit of information—an elementary step in computation—requires at least kBT ln(2) of energy. Recently, …
Superconductivity is a fascinating state of matter where electron pairs flow without resistance. Superconductivity at ambient temperature and pressure is the greatest unfulfilled dream in physics and materials science. Recently, …
