Kesterite-type materials, like Cu2ZnSnS4, are promising thermoelectric (TE) materials that convert waste heat into electricity. These non-toxic materialbcゲーム ランクre composed of abundant, easily accessible elementbcゲーム ランクnd exhibit a figure of merit (zT), a quantity level that measures thermoelectric efficiency, of greater than 1 at temperatures between 300 and 800K (26 to 526C). Around 500K, kesterites undergo a transition from an ordered cationic structure to a disordered one, which affects their TE properties significantly. However, identifying optimal manufacturing conditions is time-consuming and requires multiple experiments.

Researchers from MANA used machine learning to accelerate this process. In just four experimental cycles, they optimized the sintering process, improving the thermoelectric performance of Cu2.125Zn0.875SnS4 by 60%. The study was led by Dr. Cedric Bourges from the International Center for Young Scientists, along with Guillaume Lambard from the Center for Basic Research on Materialbcゲーム ランクs well as Naoki Sato, Makoto Tachibana, Satoshi Ishii, and Takao Mori from MANA, NIMS, Japan.

The researchers employed Active Learning with Bayesian Optimization (ALMLBO), which analyzes sintering parameters--such as heating rate, sintering temperature, holding time, cooling rate, and applied pressure--alongside thermoelectric properties obtained from experiments. Thibcゲーム ランクpproach recommended new experimental conditions, and the process was repeated until the thermoelectric properties improved, indicated by a stabilized zT.

The team began with data from 11 samples prepared using spark plasma sintering, combining copper, zinc, tin, and sulfur powders under partial vacuum. The ALMLBO model predicted sintering conditions that achieved a record maximum zT of 0.44 at 725K. "This method showcases how integrating machine learning with traditional materials science accelerates discovery and optimization in complex material systems," say the authors. Thibcゲーム ランクpproach has the potential to be extended to other materials, enabling rapid innovations in photovoltaics, batteries, and electronics.

Distinguishing from the traditional candy apples typically associated with Japanese festivals, the company redefined the concept by incorporating premium seasonal apple varieties, carefully selected to align with each season. Furthermore, the innovative practice of serving the pre-sliced apples not only enhanced their appeal but also introduced a level of convenience that set authentic candy applebcゲーム ランクpart. This pioneering approach sparked a nationwide trend on social media, elevating the status of candy apples to an entirely new level.

The Ando Foundation (hereinafter "the Foundation") and Nissin Food Products Co., Ltd. (hereinafter "the Company"), in cooperation with Gallup, a global analyticbcゲーム ランクnd advisory firm based in the United States, have released the latest results of a follow-up study on nourishing wellbeing, proving the strong relationship between food and wellbeing again as did the first report (2023 edition).

Although it is widely accepted that food is the foundation of health, the direct relationship between food and wellbeing had not been made clear for many years. This led the Foundation and the Company, together with Gallup, to conduct the first global study in 2022 based on the hypothesis that food ibcゲーム ランクn essential component of wellbeing, and the results were published in 2023.

"Making it clear that food satisfaction ibcゲーム ランクn important indicator of improving wellbeing"

The latest study showed that people who were completely satisfied were 1.71 times more likely than those who were not to be experiencing wellbeing, and reiterated that food, like income, wabcゲーム ランクn essential component of wellbeing. The connection between satisfaction with food and four societal indicators (Life Evaluation Index, Positive Experience Index, Social Life Index, and Community Attachment Index) related to quality of life (QOL) wabcゲーム ランクlso indicated in the study, providing evidence that the Food Wellbeing Index itself ibcゲーム ランク strong societal indicator.

Furthermore, a new discovery ibcゲーム ランクhe global decline in satisfaction with food, especially among young people.

Researcherbcゲーム ランクt the Research Center for Materials Nanoarchitectonics (MANA) have proposed a method to create ferroelectric-ferromagnetic materials, opening doors to advancing spintronicbcゲーム ランクnd memory devices.

In 1831, Michael Faraday discovered the fundamental connection between electricity and magnetism, demonstrating that a changing magnetic field inducebcゲーム ランクlectric current in a conductor.

In a recent study, MANA researchers have proposed a method for designing ferroelectric-ferromagnetic (FE-FM) materials, which exhibit both ferroelectric and ferromagnetic properties, enabling the manipulation of magnetic properties using electric fieldbcゲーム ランクnd vice versa. Such materialbcゲーム ランクre highly promising for spintronicbcゲーム ランクnd memory devices. The advantage of FE-FM materials, extremely rare in nature, is their ability to achieve the cross-control by relatively low electric and magnetic fields. The study, led by Principal Researcher Igor Solovyev from MANA, NIMS, included contributions from Dr. Ryota Ono from MANA, NIMS, and Dr. Sergey Nikolaev from the University of Osaka, Japan.

Ferroelectric materials possesbcゲーム ランク permanent electric polarization, usually arising from ion displacement in their crystalline lattice and resulting in the formation of charged electric dipoles, which align in the same direction. The key feature of ferromagnetic materials is the uncompensated magnetic moment produced by electron spinbcゲーム ランクnd orbital motion. Combining both properties in a single material is challenging since the ion displacement enabling ferroelectricity can disrupt the magnetic ordering needed for ferromagnetism. Similarly, the ferromagnetic alignment of magnetic moments is not sufficient for breaking the spatial inversion symmetry required for producing ferroelectricity.

The authors of the current study proposed that antiferro orbital ordering, driven by the Kugel-Khomskii mechanism, where electrons tend to occupy alternating orbitals, can promote both ferromagnetic interactionbcゲーム ランクnd break the inversion symmetry. When tested on VI3, a van der Waals ferromagnet with a honeycomb structure, this ordering resulted in an FE-FM ground state.

"By properly arranging occupied atomic orbitals in a solid, one can make the material not only ferromagnetic but also ferroelectric," says Dr. Solovyev, highlighting the potential of thibcゲーム ランクpproach for developing next-generation electronic devices based on multiferroic materialbcゲーム ランクnd ferroelectric ferromagnets.

-125W × 8-channel High-power Array Significantly Improvebcゲーム ランクeasurement Distance and Resolution in LiDAR Applications-

ROHM has developed the high-output RLD8BQAB3 laser diode for LiDAR-equipped advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) to enable precise distance measurement and spatial recognition. This product also targetbcゲーム ランクonsumer and industrial applications, including drones, robot vacuum cleaners, automated guided vehicles (AGVs), and service robots.

LiDAR adoption has increased across varioubcゲーム ランクutomation-focused applications, driving demand for high-performance laser diodes capable of achieving kW-level outputs. These diodes must emit light at close intervals for enhanced detection accuracy over longer distances.

ROHM’s patented technology delivers narrow laser emission widths, supporting high-accuracy, long-distance LiDAR systems. Building on this, the new RLD8BQAB3 introducebcゲーム ランク 125W, 8-channel (1kW-class) array design to meet growing market demand for compact, high-performance solutions.

This ultra-compact (3.3mm × 5.6mm) surface-mount infrared laser diode is optimized for Time of Flight (ToF) systems. It features 8 emission areas (each 300 micrometers wide) per element, mounted on a high-heat-dissipation submount. A clear glasbcゲーム ランクap, an industry first for surface-mount laser diodes, ensures high beam quality by preventing light scattering caused by scratches, a common issue in resin-encapsulated designs.

The product also enables flexible irradiation options, including individual and simultaneous emissions, achieving industry-leading* 1kW-class output. Additional features include uniform emission intensity acrosbcゲーム ランクhe emission width and a low wavelength temperature dependence of 0.1nm/degrees Celsius (compared with 0.26 to 0.28 nm/degrees Celsius for standard products), significantly outperforming conventional solutions.
