Integrated Computing Architectures (PGI-4)

The preprint of our paper entitled “Automated Charge Transition Detection in Quantum Dot Charge Stability Diagrams” by Fabian Hader, Fabian Fuchs, Sarah Fleitmann, Karin Havemann, Benedikt Scherer, Jan Vogelbruch, Lotte Geck, and Stefan van Waasen is now available.

Since March, our institute has had the pleasure of hosting Luca Castellani, a student from the University of Turin (Italy), through the Erasmus+ traineeship programme. This EU initiative gives students and recent graduates the chance to gain hands-on professional experience abroad, develop new skills, and immerse themselves in different cultures.

This year, our employees once again acted as ambassadors for Forschungszentrum Jülich at their children's kindergartens and primary schools and other locations.

Yesterday, we had a great 3rd annual meeting of the Jülich Neuromorphic Computing community. Being the 3rd gathering, we can surely count this as a tradition by now. Around 75 scientists from all participating institutes engaged in a day full of fruitful discussions and exchange on our current and future work as well as new or renewed plans to strengthen an intensive exchange.

In February, Alexander Sulaberidze, Student of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Free University of Tbilisi, Georgia, spent a one-month internship at our institute ICA | PGI-4. During this time, he was able to gain many new insights thanks to the Georgian-German Science Bridge project. We are happy that Alexander contributed so well and at the end of his internship he also gave a lecture in our weekly lecture series.

We are happy to share that coupled oscillator chip Dolpin.SNN, is here! Dolphin.SNN, implemented in 28 nm process technology, is inspired by the Kuramoto model with delay to emulate real-world systems. This chip serves as a platform for studying coupled oscillators where each oscillator is represented by a Phase Locked Loop (PLL).

Integrated Computing Architectures (ICA) is a scientific institute of Forschungszentrum Jülich GmbH performing research and innovation in different fields of Future Computing paradigms using semiconductor solutions to enable the scalability of novel computing approaches. This reaches from system modeling over implementations up to system integration of novel devices, like memristors and qubits to enable real applications to significantly advance today’s computing capabilities.

In the newest issue of the employee magazine "inside 3 | 2024" from Forschungszentrum Jülich, our colleague and team leader (System Modeling) Junior-Prof. Lotte Geck talks about her career.

Finally, the time has come: The result of our joint efforts over the past two years, our compact electronics and sophisticated crate composition embarked on its journey.
