Article Synopsis
  • A novel technique was developed to convert aluminum into transparent aluminum oxide through a small-scale anodization process using droplets.
  • Anodization at 2 V for 10 minutes produced a uniform and transparent oxide layer, with chemical analysis showing the presence of aluminum oxide/hydroxide.
  • The process resulted in a smoother surface and randomly distributed nanopores, indicating potential for broader applications in sustainable electronics and other fields.

Article Synopsis
  • The study addresses the challenge of training quantum neural networks (QNNs) by introducing the Bees Optimization Algorithm (BOA) to tackle barren plateaus.
  • Experiments show that BOA outperforms the Adam algorithm in terms of convergence speed, accuracy, and computational efficiency across different qubit counts and circuit depths.
  • The findings suggest that BOA could significantly improve the use of QNNs in complex quantum computations.

Background: The World Stroke Academy (WSA), the educational platform of the WSO, provides high-quality stroke education to health care professionals worldwide. Understanding the learning needs and preferences of WSA members is crucial for effective knowledge translation. This study aims to (1) assess demographics and professional backgrounds of WSA members, (2) identify preferences in knowledge acquisition, and (3) evaluate audience retention during WSA webinars.

The increasing availability of graphics processing units (GPUs) for scientific computing has prompted interest in accelerating quantum chemical calculations through their use. However, the complexity of integral kernels for high angular momentum basis functions often limits the utility of GPU implementations with large basis sets or for metal containing systems. In this work, we report the implementation of f function support in the GPU-accelerated TeraChem software package through the development of efficient kernels for the evaluation of Hamiltonian integrals.
