A flow control system that produces smooth flow for on-chip pneumatic micropumps has been developed. By establishing a flow control system that can achieve smooth flow, fluidic conditions of microphysiological systems can be controlled to accurately mimic biological conditions. Biological experiments can require flow profiles anywhere on the spectrum of smooth flow to highly pulsatile flow. A smooth flow profile can be modified with pumping delays to make the flow profile as pulsatile as desired.

The exponential growth in deep learning models is challenging existing computing hardware. Optical neural networks (ONNs) accelerate machine learning tasks with potentially ultrahigh bandwidth and nearly no loss in data movement. Scaling up ONNs involves improving scalability, energy efficiency, compute density, and inline nonlinearity. However, realizing all these criteria remains an unsolved challenge. Here, we demonstrate a three-dimensional spatial time-multiplexed ONN architecture based on dense arrays of microscale vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSELs). The VCSELs, coherently injection-locked to a leader laser, operate at gigahertz data rates with a 7T-phase-shift voltage on the 10-millivolt level. Optical nonlinearity is incorporated into the ONN with no added energy cost using coherent detection of optical interference between VCSELs.

SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CONTROLLING DENDRITE PROPAGATION IN SOLID-STATE ELECTROCHEMICAL CELLS
A solid-state electrochemical cell includes a solid electrolyte where at least a portion of the electrolyte is in a compressive stress state. The compressive stress state includes at least one stress component that is orthogonal to the preferred direction of dendrite growth, which may correspond to the direction of an electric field. If the magnitude of the stress component is sufficiently large (e.g., greater than 50 MPa), then the growth of a dendrite passing through that portion of the electrolyte may be suppressed or deflected towards the direction of the applied stress component. In this manner, a dendrite may be deflected away from a cathode, thus prolonging the life of the cell. The compressive stress state may be generated by applying an external mechanical load to the cell and/or generating a residual stress in the cell during manufacture or assembly.
