How should we collaborate on a national strategy for semiconductors? The answer could be closer than we think. After the panel discussion during “Politics Week” in Almedalen, Lund University is now taking the first step towards establishing a national competence center for semiconductors. The shortage of semiconductors is a global challenge that requires quick solutions. During the recent  Almedal

How will the VAT reduction affect consumers, according to Professor Emeritus Lars Jonung? The government and Sverigedemokraterna want to halve food VAT, cutting it from twelve to six percent in April next year.

On-chip optical communication between tiny light-based components can make neuromorphic (brain-inspired) computing much smaller and more energy-efficient. In this work, researchers demonstrate that individual nanowire devices on a silicon chip can transmit and receive light signals directly to each other. These miniature circuits communicate reliably, using significantly less power than convention

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have compared how much energy bats use when flying, depending on whether they have large or small ears. Large ears increase air resistance, meaning that long-eared bats are forced to expend more energy than species with small ears. On the plus side, large ears generate more lif
