Photolithography, the process of manipulating light to etch features on to a surface, is crucial in making computer chips and optical devices. However, the performance of devices made using this process often falls short of their original designs due to minute deviations during manufacturing. To address this design-to-manufacturing gap, researchers from MIT and the Chinese…
Photolithography, a process of etching detailed patterns onto surfaces using light, is a crucial technique in the design and production of computer chips and other optical devices, such as lenses. However, minute deviations during manufacturing can cause a discrepancy between the designer's intentions and the actual produced device.
To help bridge this gap between design…
MIT researchers have conducted a study that suggests machine learning models might be used to better design hearing aids, cochlear implants, and brain-machine interfaces. In the largest research project to date involving deep neural networks trained to carry out auditory tasks, the researchers showed that most of these models mimic the human brain’s behaviour when…
