World's fastest information-fuelled engine designed by SFU researchers

Date11th, May 2021

Summary:

Simon Fraser University researchers have designed a remarkably fast engine that taps into a new kind of fuel -- information.The development of this engine, which converts the random jiggling of a microscopic particle into stored energy, is outlined in research published this week in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) and could lead to significant advances in the speed and cost of computers and bio-nanotechnologies.
