Creation of the first "permanent" terahertz quantum cascade laser in the Russian Federation, which will help develop innovative wireless communication systems

Russian physicists have developed the first domestic quantum cascade laser capable of continuously generating coherent terahertz radiation in the range from 3.1 to 3.9 THz. The development, introduced in November 2024, will accelerate the creation of new wireless communication and medical diagnostics systems.

According to TASS, Rustam Khabibullin, head of the laboratory of quantum cascade lasers at MIPT, noted that the creation of such devices is the most difficult technological task that only a few countries of the world can solve.

Created the first "permanent" terahertz quantum cascade laser in the Russian Federation

Scientists solved the overheating problem typical of previous models by reducing current density by about ten times. This allowed the device to operate continuously instead of generating short pulses.

The success of the development is based on the idea of ​ ​ the founder of quantum electronics Alexander Prokhorov, who proposed in 1965 to use two photons and two quantum transitions to produce laser radiation, which theoretically increases the efficiency of the laser.

Specialists of the Ioffe FTI created a structure of 160 transitions-amplifying modules, each of which contains four quantum wells with layer thicknesses from 3 to 7 nanometers. The growth process of such structures takes more than 10 hours and requires 1-2% accuracy when maintaining the thickness and composition of semiconductor layers.

Scientists created lasers from gallium arsenide and aluminum and gallium arsenide are able to constantly produce terahertz beams of milliwatt power over a wide range of frequencies and temperatures. The technology will find application in the creation of emitters for medical devices, data transmission systems and sensors for spacecraft.

The first concept of quantum cascade laser was proposed by Soviet physicists in 1971. Such devices generate radiation by electron transitions between layers of two different semiconductor materials with special physical and quantum characteristics.^[1]

Creation of a fully domestic radio module for the 5G communication system

On November 1, 2024, it became known that the engineers of the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology (MIPT), together with Teleport, successfully completed tests of the duplexer unit for the transceiver radio module of the 5G mobile communication system, completely created on the domestic component base.

According to CNews, the developed high-frequency filters on cavity resonators are designed for use in base stations of fourth and fifth generation networks. Devices provide suppression of parasitic signal components and improve electromagnetic compatibility of communication systems.

A completely domestic radio module for the 5G communication system has been created in Russia

Grigory Seregin, head of the department for applied research and development of promising cellular solutions at MIPT, emphasizes that this development is part of a large-scale project to create a Russian 5G network. Technologies will find application in robotics, self-driving cars and the development of artificial intelligence.

During tests in the pilot zone of MIPT and on the basis of Teleport LLC in Izhevsk, duplexer filters demonstrated a barrier level in cross-frequency bands of more than 120 dB, which corresponds to the terms of reference.

The Institute is also developing a technological solution for connecting to 5G through satellites, which will ensure the availability of communication in remote regions of Russia without deploying a full-fledged infrastructure of cellular operators. Anton Khudykin, deputy head of the MIPT Research and Development Center for Telecommunications, notes that this will ensure the functioning of robotic complexes in autonomous mode.

At the next stage, it is planned to integrate the developed multiplexers into the housing of the domestic transceiver radio module and expand the line of filters to new frequency bands. According to the plans of the Ministry of Digital Development of Russia, the mass deployment of 5G networks in the country will begin in 2028, subject to the establishment of mass production of domestic equipment.^[2]

Launch of a startup studio for the development of DeepTech projects together with Sberbank

Sberbank and MIPT Startup Studio are opening a joint DeepTech startup studio aimed at developing and commercializing technological business projects with a deep scientific and engineering component. This was announced on June 6, 2024 by the First Deputy Chairman of the Board of Sberbank Alexander Vedyakhin.

Teams with science-intensive developments of the TRL3 stage can become a participant in the studio (a simplified sample was made, a testing methodology was developed, a concept was confirmed) and above, having hypotheses about possible applications of technology, science-intensive competencies and a team of two people.

Solutions in the field of artificial intelligence, robotics, quantum computing, electronics, biotechnology and medicine will be considered as a priority, but projects from any direction have the opportunity to pass the selection. You can apply for participation at the link, applications are accepted on an ongoing basis.

The best projects will be able to take advantage of customized support programs: get mentoring support, help with finding the first customers, piloting sites in Sberbank and from industrial partners, gain competencies in the team, and also attract investments.

DeepTech is one of the most attractive destinations for venture capital investors: one in five unicorns in the world is a DeepTech startup. However, such projects have the highest risks due to the fact that their launch on the market requires significantly more time and financial costs, and often DeepTech projects do not have a connection with potential development customers. Therefore, they need the serious support of experienced players who will help test the solution and find its application, as well as attract the first investment, said Alexander Vedyakhin, First Deputy Chairman of the Management Board of Sberbank.

Announcement of the opening of three youth laboratories

Within the framework of the national project "Science and Universities" in 2024, MIPT will open three scientific laboratories that will develop oxide materials for microelectronics, genetic research of married couples before conceiving a child to exclude possible pathologies in the child and issues of distributed training of neural networks and communication in them. Most of the staff of scientific projects will be researchers under the age of 39. This was announced on May 3, 2024 by representatives of the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology.

As reported, the teams created at MIPT will have to solve problems that are relevant to modern technological and social needs. The activities of the laboratory of functional oxide materials for microelectronics MIPT will focus on the development of promising functional technologies. According to the project manager, Doctor of Design, Professor of the Russian Academy of Sciences, scientific director of the direction of semiconductor oxide materials for printed electronics Denis Vinnik, a team of novice researchers should strengthen the material science unit of the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology.

The creation of a youth laboratory was a logical continuation of the development of the materials science block, the basis of which was laid in 2023, when the Laboratory of Semiconductor Oxide Materials was created. The scientific team is focused primarily on solving practice-oriented problems in terms of the development of promising functional materials based on oxides for the creation of active electronics elements by printed methods. In addition, the team pays sufficient attention to the presentation of its own results in periodicals. During the implementation of projects supported by the RFBR, the RSF, the system of scholarships and grants of the President of the Russian Federation and other funds, we have published a fairly large number of scientific articles in foreign publications. As of May 2024, we are increasing the share of articles published in domestic journals. We expect that such a combination of priorities will increase the position in the ratings of our publications. However, as of May 2024, we pay the greatest attention to the development of applied projects. The creation of a youth laboratory will strengthen the personnel, develop the direction in terms of creating promising oxide materials for electronics. emphasized Denis Vinnik

Another scientific project that will work at Fiztech is associated with typing sections of the human genome. According to Viktor Bogdanov, senior researcher - head of the multiomics laboratory at the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology, research in this area will allow determining pathogenic mutations with greater accuracy at the pre-conception screening stage.

Our main project, under which federal funding has been received, is associated with typing highly homologous regions in the genome, which include regions containing, among other things, CYP21A2 and SMN1 genes, breakdowns in which are responsible for the development of congenital dysfunction of the adrenal cortex and spinal muscular atrophy, respectively. To date, it is extremely difficult to accurately type these genes - and therefore determine the carrier of pathogenic mutations - from genome-wide sequencing data, and as a result, this is not included in the clinical analysis of the data. Therefore, by doing a genome-wide study for preception screening purposes, couples planning a child do not receive an accurate result about the carriage of pathogenic variants in these genes, which means they do not have the opportunity to schedule adequate prenatal screening for these diseases. Our work on this project is aimed at developing computational methods for accurately typing such regions, which will solve these problems. specified Victor Bogdanov

Also, in the near future, a laboratory of discrete and combinatorial optimization will open at MIPT. Her team consists of specialists in discrete mathematics, optimization methods and theoretical computer science. The team will be led by Dr. Andrei Kupavsky. The laboratory plans to conduct fundamental and applied scientific research as part of the project "Algorithmic problems in distributed learning and the use of neural networks: organization of communication and data presentation."

The tasks set for the laboratory are associated with distributed training of neural networks and, more generally, with effective communication in large networks. For obvious reasons, this is a booming field, in many aspects without established standards, and the laboratory has the opportunity to make a significant contribution to it. At the same time, emerging problems often have a deep mathematical nature, affecting several related fields of mathematics. To solve them, we managed to gather in the laboratory leading specialists from graph theory, discrete mathematics, discrete and continuous optimization. In addition to the already established scientists, several very graduate students and young candidates will work in the laboratory, for whom the laboratory will become an environment for active growth. project manager Andrey Kupavsky told

Terahertz technologies have not yet entered our daily life tightly, but due to their rapid development, this day is clearly not far off. Many of us, without knowing it, have already come into contact with terahertz devices, for example, passing to land at the airport through a scanner for inspection. This is just one of many examples of terahertz instruments. The field of their application captures medicine, telecommunications, information security and many other areas.

Despite the unusual name, in fact, hexaferrites are well known to any person who held in his hands, bank card a key card from a hotel room or a tape cassette. All these things are united by one thing - the magnetic strips in them are made of hexaferrite. Externally, nondescript black and brown matter, as it turned out, is a very attractive magnetic material. And the fact that hexaferrites are also quite cheap to produce, since they are obtained from waste metallurgy and, mechanical engineering allowed them to turn around at full power in the magnetic market and occupy a good third of it with an annual turnover of billions. dollars However, the magnetic properties that glorified hexaferrite made us undeservedly forget about its other qualities. Historically, the scientific study of hexaferrites went quite one-sidedly: scientists slightly changed the chemical formula and watched how this would affect magnetic characteristics. The rest of the studies, if carried out, with much less enthusiasm.

Scientists from MIPT, in collaboration with Russian and foreign colleagues, first investigated the potential of hexaferrite for terahertz technologies. One of the desired characteristics of the material in instrumentation is tunability, that is, the ability to purposefully change the properties of the substance. For example, by changing the temperature, control the transparency of the material, etc. It was the tunability of hexaferrites that caused the delight of the researchers. Lyudmila Alyabyeva and colleagues investigated barium-lead hexaferrite. It turned out that if lead is added to barium hexaferrite, this will significantly change its terahertz response, that is, the nature of interaction with terahertz radiation. By studying how the amount of lead added to hexaferrite affects the ability to absorb terahertz, the scientists found that at a certain concentration of lead, the response changes in a sudden and unexpected way. An absorption band appears in it, which can be moved in frequency. To shift such a strip, you just need to cool the material - and hexaferrite will become easily tunable. In principle, the very phenomenon of such moving absorption bands is known in solid state physics and is called "soft modes." However, the soft mode found in hexaferrite asked scientists two riddles at once: firstly, its appearance itself was a complete surprise, and secondly, its behavior when the temperature drops differs from that prescribed by standard theory. In her work, Lyudmila Alyabyeva and co-authors offer an explanation for both phenomena - both the unexpected appearance of soft fashion and its unusual behavior.

In addition to the obvious practical significance, the study has a purely fundamental interest: we first observed soft fashion with such exotic temperature behavior. For October 2021, we are actively working to find out what physical processes underlie its nature, - said Boris Gorshunov, d. F.-m. n, head of the terahertz spectroscopy laboratory of the Center for Photonics and Two-Dimensional Materials of MIPT.

Of course, it was not without problems: for a thorough study of the properties of hexaferrite, we needed large enough crystals, while all the well-developed technologies in the world work to obtain small crystals or powders. However, this problem is gradually being overcome. For example, crystals of special size and quality for this work were grown by our colleagues, the group of Professor Denis Vinnik in Chelyabinsk, - added Lyudmila Alyabyeva, Ph.D. n., Senior Researcher, Laboratory of Terahertz Spectroscopy, Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology and the first author of the work.

In addition to the employees of the terahertz spectroscopy laboratory of the Center for Photonics and 2D Materials of the Moscow Institute of Physics, their colleagues from the Institute of General Physics named after A. M. Prokhorov RAS, South Ural State University, Southern Federal University, Institute of Physics of the Czech Academy of Sciences and Charles University (Czech Republic), Stuttgart and Augsburg Universities (Germany), as well as the Institute of Automation and Electrometry of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy Academy.

The training under the program is based not only on the theory given by teachers with extensive experience in the design and development of distributed systems, but also on solving current business problems, as well as participation in real industrial projects. Among the educational subjects of the program there is both game theory and tokenomics, where, based on specific examples, the importance of connecting blockchain technologies with economics, jurisprudence and other fields is studied.

As part of research work, students are actively involved in existing projects of companies. In particular, they have the opportunity to get a paid internship with Newity, an industrial partner of the program, where they are attracted to work in international blockchain projects with the prospect of switching to a permanent labor contract.

The first issue in our master's program showed that the topic of blockchain in terms of technologies and their application is of great interest from students. In addition, we are very pleased that our two-year course turned out to be relevant in terms of content, and also managed to bring together excellent teachers with great practical experience. Of course, we continue to work on improving the curriculum and involve colleagues from Russia and foreign countries in cooperation, "said Vladimir Gorgadze.

After graduating from the master's degree, graduates will be able to create their own blockchain projects that can be applicable in various sectors of the economy. As research confirms, the technology can be used both in business processes and at the [state] level.

MIPT students recognized as the best in the world in AI systems for Minecraft

Employees of the MIPT Cognitive Dynamic Systems Laboratory became the winners of the MineRL competition. The MIPT announced this to TAdviser on December 16, 2019. They proposed an unknown method of training with demonstration-based reinforcement, with which you can quickly and efficiently solve hierarchical problems in the Minecraft environment: resource search and tool creation. It will be possible to use the developed algorithms when creating autonomous mobile robots and robotic manipulators. The competition was held as part of the international conference on neural network technologies Neural Information Processing Systems-2019.

Reinforcement training is one of the promising methods of artificial intelligence that demonstrates success in gaming and robotic tasks, but requires a large amount of computing resources and training time. Employees and trainees of the MIPT Cognitive Dynamic Systems Laboratory and the Institute of Artificial Intelligence Problems of the Federal Research Center of the IU RAS - Alexey Skrynnik, Ermek Aitygulov, Alexey Staroverov, Kirill Aksenov, Vasily Davydov and Alexander Panov - proposed an approach using the mechanism of forgetting incorrect expert demonstrations to solve the problem.

The laboratory team achieved an excellent result by adequately representing Fiztech and Russia at an international conference. Minecraft's gaming environment, in which we were able to demonstrate the intelligent behavior of an agent, implements a wide variety of different types of human interaction with a complex, unpredictable external environment. In this regard, it is an excellent simulator close to reality, and it is much more difficult for it to develop behavior training methods than for environments such as Go, Dota or Starcraft. Our proposed method opens up various ways to apply reinforcement training already in applied tasks, such as unmanned vehicles and robotic manipulators, said the head of the laboratory of cognitive dynamic systems of the Center for Cognitive Modeling Alexander Panov

The competition lasted five months, with a total of two rounds. In the first, the Fiztech team took third place, in the second - bypassed nine finalists and took first place by a significant margin. More than 40 teams from around the world participated in the competition.

MineRL is a competition for intelligent algorithms rather than computational capabilities. Prior to this, many worthy results in the field of artificial intelligence were achieved due to "brute force" - a large number of GPUs and CPUs for training complex systems. As soon as the need to develop computational-efficient methods was added to the requirements, the chances of all teams were equalized. In such conditions, our guys turned out to be the best, ahead of teams from the USA, China, Japan, Finland, Germany and other countries. This once again confirms that Fiztech in general and FPMI in particular are world leaders in the field of artificial intelligence. And this is actually natural, because a good system of interaction between academic base organizations and industrial partners has been built at the Fiztech School. In this case, I would note the extremely successful docking of the ISA RAS and Aimtekha at the FPMI site, added director of the Fiztech School of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science Andrei Raigorodsky

The competition was organized by Microsoft and Carnegie Mellon University, the organizing and program committees included Katya Hofmann (Microsoft Research), Ruslan Salakhutdinov (Carnegie Mellon University), Sergey Levin (UC Berkeley) and Chelsea Finn (Google Brain and UC Berkeley).

Physicists of the Russian Academy of Sciences and MIPT have determined the type of quasiparticles in semiconductor carbon nanotubes

On December 5, 2019, the MIPT reported that scientists from the Institute of General Physics. A. M. Prokhorov RAS and MIPT together with colleagues investigated the influence of "traps" on the optical properties of carbon nanotubes. When treated with hydrochloric acid, individual hydrogen atoms remain on the surface of the tubes. They do not form chemical bonds with the surface, and, therefore, do not introduce defects into the structure of the nanotube. These atoms serve as "traps" - a quasi-particle that falls into their zone of influence cannot "escape" (becomes localized). Based on the data obtained by spectroscopy methods, physicists came to the conclusion that an exciton (consisting of an electron and a "hole") and a trion (exciton, which was joined by another hole or electron) fell into the "trap."
